Tape stripes on '68 4-4-2 dash

I'm hoping someone out there can tell me the widths of the tape stripes that go on the lower dash of the '68 4-4-2, as well as the width of the space between the stripes. I know the narrower stripe goes on the inside and the wider stripe is parallel and outboard of the narrow stripe. I also have a good idea of where the stripes are supposed to go, thanks to manual section 1-3, page 116 of the assembly manual. Those stripes are missing from my car and I'd like to try my hand at putting them on, if I knew the measurements for the stripes and the space between them. Thank you!

Randy C.

The two stripes come together on one carrier...stick on car and remove carrier...called Double Stripes by Plastigard...36 feet...a division of Crilaplastic...part number PG922670...5/16 X 36' / 0.8 cm X 11 m...this has a 3/16 stripe with a 3/16 space with a 1/16 stripe..I have posted this info before for Tom? Black on green and red dashes and white on the other colours...Look for this stuff at hobby shops... I bought mine at Canadian Tire.

Where does the stripping go? I guess I would need it too for my interior restoration. Should all 1968 442 have it or did it come as part of another option?
