Title: 69 Dearborn Running Change Thread-Trunk Lid Stripe
Post by: J_Speegle on April 06, 2022, 06:17:30 PM

We had a small- short discussion a while back and I thought we should start some separate threads focusing on the running change. Ford in the early part of 69 production was provided with stripe kits for the new Mach I by #m. Ford some reason the words MACH I was not included on the trunk section or in some cases lacked the rear stripe all together as were the preproduction cars used in the early advertisements. This was later changed. 

If we need to or can find enough data discussions about the non-reflective stripes or the changes in the side stripes can be discussed in other threads

I mined an earlier thread on the subject that had a mix of plant examples and have included those examples below to help

Thanks Jeff!  I hope we get some feedback on this thread.  I have to search for more pictures and determine if I'll go with or without the Mach I on the trunk.
