The dealership I bought mine from typically added pinstripes to vehicles. I never asked whether the pinstriping on mine was factory or dealer; I suspect it was the dealer. If I ever repaint the whole van I probably won't put it back. It's really beginning to show the age now. (Mine's an 87.) -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com]On Behalf Of Spinoso, Tom Sent: Friday, May 14, 2004 7:22 AM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Pin Stripes?
Hi all,
Does anyone know if any 88-91 Wolfsburg or Carat models had factory pin stripping above the "indented channel" running the length of the body. They seam to be somehow graded from thin to thick. I am curious to know was this may tell me if the van I am looking at has been painted or not. I just don't recall this pin striping before.... Thanks.
