I always heard that they were blue initially then black later but I don't recall seeing any documentation on that. Another possibility is to look for the stripe residue on the inside of the doors, fenders and door jams. I've seen them even on cars that have had many paintjobs. I was able to document the factory stripe color and location on my Canadian 69 2+2 by finding little bits of the stripes on the inside front edge of my doors and backs of the fenders.
