Always a lot of definitions concerning what is an "early 69 Judge" .
But the stripe color seems to have changed in early-to-mid March , and likely plant variations within that. But seems most definite anything April or later would/should have been Black stripes, not Blue.
Week 2B ending - was the running cut for the semi-loose term of "mandatory pattern built" cars. Patterns could still be ordered by the 000xx zone code for a short while beyond that. But orders could openly be a la carte' accessories - starting 2C.
Still had to be Carousel cars, though.
My 2C Baltimore non-pattern Carousel was Blue Stripe , with no Judge glovebox nor GTO dash emblem.
The stripe color change is close in hand with timeframe of colors other than carousel being available. Not saying exactly defacto hand-in-hand , but a close proximity.
Maybe ... could be a connection on those . {?}
Best i can offer
