It is not special paint; has 67-67 paint code.

The early Camaro Color Accents chart lists Burgundy as receiving red D90, D96 or DX1 striping. Z/28 striping wasn't listed. It was final-assembled on or about October 8, 1968. Fisher Body used the info they had and gave it red stripes. Other Burgundy Z/28s have white stripes.

Burgundy is a relatively rare color; only about 2.3%.

So if Fisher gave the car red Stripes, so did Chevrolet on the front end right? So both plants had to be on the same page on this one, however that was done.

Love that color. Personal preference would be without the stripes or another color, but gorgeous none the less. Some great pics at Mecum.

I'm going to show my ignorance here, but is the spacing of the stripes correct?

The front stripes seem to key off the cowl panel; in the rear the seem to be anchored by the width of the rear window, resulting in (what looks to me to be) a wider gap between the stripes in the rear than in the front.

Never noticed it before.

Another observation: I think this would be a cool application for "ghost stripes" (stripes that would be a little less visible).

The stripes are wider in the rear. If this is the car I knew of it had original paint fairly recently. I wonder how many with red stripes are around
