You all are going to love this - but - my car is not even remotely close to the same from side to side.

LH side strip is 3/32" consistently along the length.

Starts out 9/16" below the belt featureline until it gets to the rear end cap, where it dives way low, like 1" below the feature.

RH side stripe is 1/16". It stays pretty consistent until it gets to the "hip" in the quarter panel, where it goes low and then gradually rises back up high at the end cap (and gets super thin).

Note that the stripes are painted and the ends allowed to taper and terminate naturally (not taped like some plants).

Just to re-iterate, this is a 5000 mile unrestored GTO built in the Pontiac Michigan facility in September of 1964.
