junkvette Jul 15th, 01, 7:23 PM just buy the stencil kit, you'll be much further ahead doing it this way ...... riskyvt Jul 16th, 01, 11:01 AM I agree with JUNKVETTE....spend the +/- $50 and buy a stencil kit. Ground Up Restorations (TC's sponsor) has them available. ------------------ Gregg Haskin 72 Chevelle SS ZZ502 Crated RAT Muncie M-20 4 speed 70project Jul 16th, 01, 7:56 PM I agree with the above, but if your car was built after 04 A 70 the main stripe on hood and deck is 9.63 and the pin stripe .30 gap between hood/deck .28. The length(stopping from edge of panel)on hood main stripe 1.53 and deck 1.38 the pin stripe on hood .95 and deck .80. Overall centering dimensions...Outward from centerline on hood is 1.66 and the deck is 1.68. Inward from hood outer crease is 2.28. Good luck I just read that out of a restoration book and I still don't have a clue where they go. chev64 Jul 17th, 01, 8:14 AM try this www.stencilsandstripes.com (http://www.stencilsandstripes.com) ------------------ Leo Paugh Maryland Chevelle Club #017 A.C.E.S.#3731 there is only one way to fail, and thats to quit. Maryland Chevelle Club (http://www.clark.net/pub/chevelle/mcc.htm) AndyP Jul 17th, 01, 2:12 PM The stencils are not great. Helped my painter lay them on today. Had to use sharp edge tape to get the lines straight. The stencils are straight on a flat paper surface but on the car they are not. Use them as a guide, but be prepared to correct the lines if you want them straight. --Andy-- ------------------ 1970 Chevelle SS Convertible (being restofied) 1937 Master Business Coupe TC #551, ACES #3513, VCCA #35642 http://home.earthlink.net/~andypap/wsnC442.html "Help I'm being held hostage by a rat" crossy Jul 17th, 01, 5:51 PM This is a low budget repaint and the car is not an original SS. I am doing it to my taste and I already have the pro series tape .I was just wondering if anyone had ever found or sent in a 'blueprint' of the measurements.I have to do a little custom work on it [hood] also so I really need to paint them on myself . thanx for all the suggestions though .I'll measre some up at Super chevy this weekend if i have to.
