Bruce,
The car is a 71, does that matter?

Rollin,

I'm no expert here, there are plenty of those on these boards, but I have never seen a real SS no matter what year with stripes on the roof

We are talking a Chevelle SS here right

I have seen cars with the stripes over the hood. Looked strange. Not a good look for a mostly stock chevelle.

Painted by someone who either a. liked that look or b. thought it was correct.

Both a and b are flat out wrong. Dont do it, looks cheap and belongs on the old rustangs and late model Ram SST's.

To each his own though, but IMO, looks downright silly on the roof.

No matter the year, if you saw it, it did not leave the factory that way. Never on the roof. Hood and rear deck only.
