    Paint and Body 1987 GT Red/Orange Stripe Tape

    About 15 years ago, I had my '87 GT repainted the same medium cabernet red color that came from the factory, and I intentionally did not replace the red/orange stripe tape that went around the entire car. I have since decided I want to add the stripe back on again, but I am having no luck...

Looong story on why it only has 1500 miles, but bottom line is it's absolutely brand new looking, with plastic still on the floors, and factory grease marks still on the undercarriage.
