What would the correct body stripe be for this car?

HOOD STRIPES ONLY! The trunk could have a stripe or a pair along the line where the trunk and the bumper meet, and a twin pinstripe along the body line on the fenders from the headlight area to about the middle of the door where the body line ends. If you look at some photos of cars from the old factory spec's it will be eaiser to decide how you want them. There were many options on striping. Just NO BIG stripes on the trunk lid! Olds did that on some of the speciality cars but I don't think that it was a production option for you rag top. If I am wrong I am sure someone here will correct my error. This is the best site for CORRECT helpful information.
The photo you added is very good, and I think is correct!
