If you want white interior, I'd say no to the black stripes. But, it would help to visualize if I knew what white houndstooth would look like.

Maybe you could do white interior with a custom black piping or accents?

I think that's a GREAT idea!!!:hail:

I've thought about doing a "muscle car" theme thirdgen project, and I was thinking about houndstooth also.

Here's some pics.

I think that would look great. I've always loved the houndstooth in the first gen camaros, so why not incorporate that into our thirdgens? Good idea IMO.

Well, if it's the black and white houndstooth like that, I think it would look real cool with your white car with black stripes.

i dont think anyone made mention to this...
they also came on 97 30th ann. cars.
might be easier to find from one of them.
i had thought of doing this, but decided unless idid the whole 97 interior swap, i dont think id like it

My car is a 25th Ann. edition and the original owner had the cars red stripes removed and black ones added ,it also has a black interior so everything should look good together. The more I look at those pictures the mor I am convinced those ae the seats and design to go with. Im also gonna tie it all in with white leather on the upper parts of the doors and I allready have the white face gauges.
