70 Mach 1 stripe layout?

[miketyler 15]

Does anyone have a link to specs on the hood stripe layout for 70 Mach with shaker hood? Also could use some reference for rear decklid stripes.

Thanks Alan - I plan to use SEM Hot Rod Black matte finish on the stripes, louvers, shaker, and spoilers. Any tips on laying out and painting the stripes? Apply fine-line tape, scuff, light prime and apply paint watching buildup? I have already bought the deck lid stencil and was going to buy the hood stencil but was thinking I could lay it out by hand except for the numbering. Any thoughts on this?

 

I attached pics of the finished car.

Nice rides there Mike.

I agree, they are nice rides! You could layout the stripes by hand but you would need the radius dimensions behind the shaker. I would just buy the stencil since it is easy to use and will give you the correct radius's and dimensions. My hood was done differently by my painter. he painted it in reverse then cleared over it so little to no edge is present.
