Does anyone know what color pinstripes would have come on a 1969 XR-7 convertible in Medium Emerald Metallic Paint with white Leather interior? Also does anyone have photos of what the stripes looked like? Thanks.

They would have been white. The exact paint code is on this chart: http://www.cougarclub.org/techinfo/PaintSamples/69paintcodes.htm under "accent stripe color."

Look near the bottom of this page for similar threads regarding pinstriping, or use the search function. There are discussions regarding the exact details in previous threads.

Oh... post some pics of your car!

I, in fact, have a medium emerald green 69 conv (blk int, though) and it had white striping. 100% confirmed. I can't find my pics fast, but these are of an original paint car I'd photographed for reference. 'The book' says equally wide stripes top and bottom, but my car's bottom stripe was slightly wider as was a parts car I had a number of years ago. I went with what I found, but most people will agree equal widths are officially 'correct'.

Hope this helps...

So even with the silver striping on the hood the pinstriping would have been white. Intersesting. Here are a few photos. Thanks for the info.

Wow. Beautiful car.

2720r on this site has a nearly identical car. Not sure if his has power windows, but 69 R-code xr7 Convt in green/white.

Great photos. I have seen the postings about spacing between stripes, thickness of stripes, etc. Can you send a photo to show the spacing at door intersection with fender/ rear quarter etc.
