1969 Barracuda "accent stripes" body code V7X ???

Anyone out there know which stripes these are   there were a couple different styles... I think ??

Trying to decipher my code book.  I think V7=accent stripe, longitudinal, paint.  X=black.

wow that's great !!  This Barracuda is the same color as my first car (another 69 notchback) and if that is correct , It has the same black stripe (similar to the 340-383 cars without the number callout) !!! Cool , it's only a 318 car but if the paint color and other options all match the car's body tag , it will make a nice street machine 383 clone/replica !!

Since it says paint stripe, I think they are talking about the double pinstripe that ran close to the top of the doors.  The 340 type stripes were tape.

my book has the following code info:

V6 = sport stripes, longitudinal, tape.
V7 = accent stripes, longitudinal, paint.
V8 = sport stripe, transverse, tape.

These are for the years 69 - 71.

Oh... OK, my old car had the tape stripe ... Oh well ... to hell with matching #'s   
Paint is a long way away , just was looking at the body tag and it got interesting.  Thank you for your information !!
