1971 Malibu RPO D88 Stripe Color
In most cases the RPO D88 stripe color was determined by
the upper body color or vinyl top/convertible color as applicable.
Two exceptions are Antique White and Tuxedo Black for obvious
reasons.
One could, through the Fleet & Special Order (F&SO)
process request the alternative color stripes on any color Malibus
with the exception noted above.
Any Malibu sport coupe, convertible, or sedan pickup could
order RPO D88 stripes. RPO D88 stripes were NOT part of the
Malibu SS option package. They were part of the RPO ZL2 Special
Ducted Hood Air System along with hood pins for 1970. You often
hear the term "stripe delete" referring to a Malibu
SS without stripes, this is incorrect in most instances. The
stripes could ONLY be "deleted" when the ZL2 option
was ordered and that had to be done, again, through the F&SO
process. If one did not order the D88 stripes without the ZL2
hood, they could not be "deleted" if they were not
ordered.
