Thanks for the compliment! Hard to believe when I look at my sig-pic that the paint job still shines up like it does. That paint was put on in 1985 and while it was extremely well taken care of for 3 years, then the car went into storage for 18 years with nothing but a cover in a carport! Guess you get what you pay for, huh?
The outline pin-stripes sort of go all the way around. From one end of the fender curve to the other side on the front clip. Sort of ends just beyond the "Stingray" emblem. On the rear, it starts just above the door handle and ends on the down-curve of the fender. Basically just following/accenting the body lines. I have some other pics that show it better if you're interested.
As for the Hooker's, I love 'em! I particularly like the fact that now that she's over 25 (like many of us!) I no longer have to worry about the cat's and inspections here in NY. They sound great, look great (even if I do say so myself!) and when you're running an L-48 like me - anything that can help in the HP department is welcome!

No - the car was completely stock with the exception of the wheels which the original owner replaced with what you see on there now - though there weren't painted like they are now.
