  1. Stripe Delete - First one in the country

    Maybe Ford painted the roof black to simulate a carbon fiber look, like an M3? I can't find any "heritage" reason for it. The C stripes are an obvious throwback, but did they race with C stripes in 1969, or just put them on the production cars?

    The black roof looks OK to me - sort of like a glass roof.I'll take some photos after I get the windows tinted.Also thinking of drilling out the fake round parts in the grill. Someone else did this and it looks good.

  3. Stripe Delete - First one in the country

    I took off the black hood decal yesterday. Needed a hair dryer on that one, and some goof off for the traces of glue left behind.Looks good.

  4. 302S vs. 302R

    I prefer the stealth look without the stripes.When you're driving a Boss, the engine/suspension/brakes are fantastic, and you can't see the stripes anyway. That's kind of zen . . .Just took the black saran wrap off the hood yesterday, and the car looks even better. I recommend a hair dryer...

  5. Boss Owners Kit - anyone receive one yet?

    I got the clips, and was hoping for more than 2 keys - especially when one key is the red track key.

  6. Third Quarter Boss Sales

    My build date was June 7, so it took about a month to get delivery.

  7. List Tickets Here

    Someone advised me that it's $800 to replace the stripes.Two speeding tickets and I'm past $800 with the cost of the tickets, plus the hit on my insurance.Stealth is good for reducing vehicle theft too. The engine is worth more than 10 grand alone.

  8. 302S vs. 302R

    There are plenty of examples without the stripes. Here's one -http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/wp-content/uploads//2010/12/Boss-302s.jpg

    You can hardly see the stripes.

  11. List Tickets Here

    I posted the photo over at "Stripe Delete - first one in the country"It's going to be worth a lot of money someday to a collector lol. It's #1

  12. Stripe Delete - First one in the country

    Looks good. Different spoiler?Did you paint the roof too?

  13. 302S vs. 302R

    I believe the racing Boss's are missing the C-Stripes, which are on all the street Boss's, except stripe delete #1.

  14. Stripe Delete - First one in the country

    Thanks for everyone's understanding. I definitely expected opinions and reactions. I might post another photo from a different angle that looks better.I have to admit, I've never been a fan of stripes (and definitely not chickens) on any car, preferring to see the lines of the car's design...

    Maybe this link will work for the photo.
