1974 Dart Sport 360 Stripe Questions

[challengersteve]

Hello Everyone, I just bought a 1974 Dart Sport 360 and was trying to figure out what version of side stripe it had originally. I have included a shot of the fender tag if this helps. It looks like the car had painted side stripes that covered the sides of the car and not like the 2 thin side stripes that I have found in pictures. This is a super solid car and I want to properly restore it so if anyone has any toughts please let me know.
Thanks, Steve

I'm not familiar with the codes, but the solid over the roof stripe was popular. Not sure if the stripes down the side bodyline were still used in '74. I always liked the hood decals, but don't know the codes or years. Might be with scoop only. The 360 side stripe call-outs were a Duster only option. You might find the link at the bottom interesting nonetheless.

Your second pic shows what may have been a variation of a popular paint scheme based on the Mopar Missile Dusters and Dart Sport driven by Don Carlton.

The yellow car is a '73. I bought a hood w/decal and scoop off of a light blue '73 318 Sport years ago.

Anyone else have any ideas on this wide stripe instead of the 2 small tape stripes?

It's not a factory stripe, mopar wouldn't have painted it that far into the jam.

or that wide of a stripe down the side either. that was painted on by someone that owned the car

The snorkel hood scoop was not an option on the '74 Dart Sport. Only the '72 Demon and '73 Dart sport. Never on the Duster.

I think the Starkey and Hutch type stripes are what you are referring to...you can see examples here...

Hello Everyone, thank you for the help as I did suspect this car was supposed to have the 2 thin stripes and not these wide ones.
Thanks, Steve
