You Learn something new everyday. According to Year One restoration Chevrolet Changed the width of the SS stripes on the 70 Chevelle in late April of 70. Year One offers a stencil kit for the SS stripes based on the Stripe size after April only. I didn't know there were two different size stripes. My 70 was built in late 69 so I am curious about this. Does anybody have any input regarding this? Or does anybody know where I can get more information on this topic? Thanks
