70 Challenger Bumble Bee Stripe
« on: February 23, 2012 - 04:06:50 PM »
We are working on a Lime green fj5 70 Challenger RT 383 4spd. The fender tag has a v9y. When I looked it up it`s for a yellow bumble bee stripe.How rare is this option?It sounds kinda ugly!  Thanks Dave

Pretty rare I would say. Someone else may be able to tell you more but I've only heard of a couple over the years. That car being a FJ5 4 speed car I would definately restore it as close as possible to original & put the stripe on. Sounds really cool to me.

Found these at Barry's site:

That's definitely different, but different doesn't always mean good.
Not my cup of tea.
