Bill Bailey 15 Report post Posted March 26, 2018 Does someone have pictures of E78x14 Wide Oval White Sidewall Tires, and the Tape Strip my car came with? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barnett468 418 Report post Posted March 31, 2018 I have not seen those tires reproduced and here's the best photo I can find of them. Here's the tape stripe. 1 Bill Bailey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guillaume69 150 Report post Posted March 31, 2018 Barnett, It’s a Mach 1 stripe you are showing us here. From what I understand, the sport appearance group tape stripe mentioned in some Marti Reports was different. The same as the one found on the 600 limited edition. Actually, the stripe was not the same on Sportsroofs and coupes. The stripe was running higher and farther to the rear on coupes. See pics below to get a better idea.

aslanefe 333 Report post Posted April 1, 2018 Stripe on the coupe (last picture Guillaume69 posted) looks like 1969 Grande specific stripe to me. 1 Bill Bailey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guillaume69 150 Report post Posted April 1, 2018 You are absolutely right, Aslanefe. From what I gathered in my readings, this tape stripe was not exclusive to Grandes. Apparently, it could be ordered on other coupes as well as part of the sports appearance group. I just couldn’t find a pic of a non Grande coupe with said tape stripe. I also saw a bunch of Grandes without the stripe, or even a vinyl top. Seems like you could virtually order any combination of options on any model, back in the day. 1 Bill Bailey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unilec 57 Report post Posted April 1, 2018 I believe the 600 was a stand alone stripe not found on other mustangs as is the Mach one stripe kit, all other cars came with the GT stripe, a little bit of info here. https://media.ford.com/content/dam/fordmedia/North America/US/2013/11/18/1969_Mustang_Data.pdf 1 Bill Bailey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guillaume69 150 Report post Posted April 1, 2018 Well I believed only GTs had GT stripes... And no mention of the Sport Appearance Group on this document? Some info here: http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=16175.0 Apparently the tape stripe found on the 600 was not exclusive to it. Just like the Grande Stripe. At least that’s what Marti tells us. 1 Bill Bailey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill Bailey 15 Report post Posted June 22, 2018 Well, as luck would have it, my body man found remnants of the factory pin stripes when he re-skinned the passenger door. 1 cavboy78 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
