Jon, Most of the stripes were installed by the Ford / Shelby Dealers. The comon charge was only $ 50.00. So.. mistakes or poor quality would not be unusual.

I just looked over my 65-350 car to help a friend out on his 65 350 car purchase and I discovered something I think is unusual on my car. The Le Mans stripes dont exactly line up and the car was ordered with factory Le Mans stripes. It seems that the stripes on the fiberglass hood are narrower then the stripes on the cowl vent area and on the top. Basically, the top and cowl stripes are wider than the stipes on the hood. Is this correct or did someone mess around with it. There is about a 2 inch gap between the stripes thats even through out the car but the width of the skunk stripes are not the same. Whats also interesting is that the cowl vent didn't get covered up when they painted the stripes. I can see blue paint inside the cowl vent area. Thanks for any info. jon
All- That's a far cry from the, what is it?, $3,500 Ford wants to stripe a Ford GT! Better not be any overspray on those!

Mike's right...I was just quoting from memory and was off a mere $1500. BTW, the Wyer Gulf comemorative paint scheme is something like $13,000 extra (quoting from memory again...I may be off a few more thou). With prices like that, you'd think that Ford's balance sheet would look a little better. On the other hand, they haven't sold all that many. There are 50 on eBay right now.
