This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

69 Driveshaft paint stripe color chart?

    I know I've seen this somewhere, but I'm coming up short on it. I need to paint two driveshafts with the correct stripes and can't recall where I found that chart. It's from the 69 assembly manual if anyone has one floating around.

    Do you just mask it and paint it?

    Yeah. I clear it afterward so the DS won’t rust.

    Curious, how wide are the stripes looks like one stripe width between strips, will you use GM yellow and green?

    I would guess Adam uses painters one shot which is a pinstriping/ sign painting paint.

    The factory put them on with a brush while the shaft was spinning on a lathe. You could easily duplicate it on the car

    I usually just mask them off and hit it with krylon. Unless it’s already in the car, but that never happens lol
