1969 300 Stripes

[JJ300]

Hi all, looking to redo the car this year, seeing as most car stuff isn't gonna happen, so the question is, does anybody have actual measurements of the 3 stripes that go down the body, running with the body line, on a 69 300. I do have stripes on mine currently, but it was a re-do many years ago, and I have measurements from other "re-do's", but would like to compare to actual factory size. On my car I have the following: Top stripe 1/8", middle stripe is 3/16", and bottom stripe is 1/4", with 1/4" between each stripe. Total width would be 1-1/16...
So any body got actual factory specs? Were mine done correctly?
Pics are reference from a car on e-bay currently.....which seem narrower than mine

I photographed some originals for reference.

Thank you!! Any chance you can get measurements off of them? I don't know if you have possession of those cars, again, thanks much!!

The ones on the dark red car seem pretty close to what I have

If those are all originals, I would have to conclude the factory ones were variable since none of them seems exactly the same to me..................................................

I agree...best guess

It's obvious the stripes are painted and not decals. It's hard to believe that they were applied by hand. More likely a stencil or fixture. That would account for the irregularities.
