Title: 65 gt 350 side stripe details
Post by: DRGT350 on March 31, 2021, 06:51:57 PM
we are nearing the point of painting the side stripes on 5s296 -

From the attached picture is looks like the stripe was masked off where the quarter panel line  meets the door striker panel and proceeds along that line on the top of the rocker panel - is this correct?

For the front of the door  - is there a detail that anyone can share? was there overspray in the area between the front of the door and back of the fender?  or was this area masked off as well?
Does the stripe have a return on the door and on the fender?

Thanks in advance for the help !

Dave

About half of that amount would be typical, although it was not an exact measurement from car to car.

Here are some pictures. Not all pretty and very focused but you get the idea - hopefully

Front fender lip

Top of rocker/sill area at the A pillar

Takes a second to figure out this is the drivers rear corner of the door opening - rocker/sill to left - quarter panel to the right

Rear wheel opening, lip with overspray of the blue onto and over the white body color and under that the sound deadener in the wheel well

Overspray onto the white sound deadener and a small section of the frame rail behind it on this example

Blow out from tape not applied or push down in corners as well as overspray where they didn't tape or mask

Hope these help
