Hi all

I seem to recall in the past there being talk about someone on here making these 1275LS side stripes. I tried searching for it but couldn't find anything.

Anyone know who it was or any other details?

Cheers
Steve

Just remember that there was LS stripes and 1275LS stripes.
Also remember that there were two different colours for the stripes, Silver cars got Black stripes and Gold cars got Dark Brown stripes.

I recall getting mine from Steve.E on this forum - think he got a bunch from chopchop though.

Correct about the colours - black for the Hi-Ho Silver, Dark Brown for the 'other colour' :lol:

Hi all

Thanks for your replies so far, a couple of leads to check out there.

Birty, the ones that you told me about don't look like they are correct. They look like they are parallel rather than tapering. I have sent a question to ask about this but haven't heard anything yet.

Cheers
Steve

Hi Steve, i have a couple of sets, but mine dont taper either.
Never knew they did until the recent TME article.
Wont be too hard to make them taper though.
Im in NZ at the moment on holidays, will be back next week.
Love willy Wonker chocolate. especially the purple chocolate they dont make anymore :cry:
