An R/T with an Orange Bumble-Bee stripe would be coded 'V9V' but this would be impossible to find as it would have to be special ordered that color by a customer at the dealer.  I don't have one handy but there is a Mopar 'directive' that articulates which stripe colors were available with a particular boby color.  You could not get just any combination you wanted; for instance you could 'only' get a white or red R/T or Bumble-Bee stripe on a black R/T car unless special ordered.  Here is a pic of my old SIX PACK; black 'TX9' body with the red 'V9E' Bumble-Bee stripe (interestingly, the red R/T  stripe 'V6R', is color-coded with an 'R' not an 'E' as in the Bumble-Bee stripe.
