Black 2013 Boss 302 Laguna Seca posing

How about no stripes, and a set of those red wheels from a 2012……

I personally hated the 2012 LS Black/Red scheme. I was looking to buy one and thought I'd get the red roof, grille, spoiler wrapped with a carbon fibre look and swap the wheels out. That way it could be returned to original at a future date. Now I'm torn between a 2013 school bus yellow LS or a 2020 Bullitt because I like the IRS.

The day two red stripes came with the car.  I like the black and red combo myself.  I would go for the 2013 school bus yellow LS all day long over the Bullitt.  Solid axles are STRONG!  As for doing a restriping of the car, I am inclined to keep as is.  I looked at some NOS stripes that are correct for the car and the asking is $2,019.92.

Further, from memory, nos 66 side stripes lose all of their adhesion over a given period of time and then are worthless.  Perhaps ten year old stripes have had it and are no good anymore anyway.  I like the gold stripe hertz style idea.  Some day perhaps.

The gold Hertz stripes are just classy. For some reason they remind me of two electrical conductor strips and sometimes I just want to connect them with my tongue to get a jolt to the electrodes?

I have no idea where the idea came from? Must be some kind of folly of youth, I did it and the jolt made me forget? I don't know? Strange? Any hot chicks listening? Do you remember me for some reason?

I have to agree that the gold stripes are classy but of course I am biased.  I think there is an R model as I observed a while back in the 1965 Shelby Mustang section that was a midnight blue with gold stripes.  I think the car is owned by one Fred Hillbert out of Kansas  It is quite the car!  I believe that he has owned the car for a very long time.  Like a successful marriage.  Something I would know nothing about.  But I'm okay with it.

Your black/red looks good. The 2012 red was overkill on both the black and silver cars. I think I'd follow the "normal" LS Boss stripes rather than a Hertz LeMans stripe look.
Are the side stripes on 843 the NOS ones you got with the car?

Actually they are not the NOS but I still have the NOS that you gave me.  There was some doubt by the striper that they would work so I decided to hang on to them.

BUT, what about switching everything from Red to the Hurtz Gold?  Same design, just Gold.

That would be my thinking if I decide to do it. Keep the same design. That would confuse those who know the cars even more.
