After 14 years and over 10,000 miles of ownership, my GMC needs some make
up.
So the question is, where can I locate photos of GMC with lower body
horizontal stripes. I don't intend to copy, but I need some ideas aka
inspiration !

Thanks

Hi Mike,
I like to look at the For Sales on Bethune's website:
http://www.bethunesales.com/listings/index.html

The Explorer II's have more of a solid lower color as opposed to a stripe.

Ours had a lower stripe when we bought it (gone now):

Finally, my brother doesn't have a stripe along the bottom, but, he did add several just below the beltline:

I'm sure you can find more examples on the photo site just searching around. Hope that helps.
