Check out the " Model A Ford Paint and Finish Guide " Shows excellent pin stripe details. Shows where the stripes go and the colors of stripes for the various stock Ford colors.

Re: 29 standard roadster pin stripe
A better reference to use is the Floyd Clymer's "Model A Album", which contains factory fresh individual photos of each body style, 1928-1931. The pin striping in most cases is very clear. Use the "Model A Paint and Finish Guide" as a reference - as recommended by "springerpete" - but rely on these original photos of Model A's just hours old to see how they actually did it in the factory. There are quite a few 1929 roadsters pictured, perhaps half a dozen. At least one photo will answer your question.
Here's the link to buy this 60 year-old booklet cheap: https://www.etsy.com/listing/5450393...SABEgJ7GfD_BwE Marshall |

Re: 29 standard roadster pin stripe
Marshall I recall your classic statement concerning Floyd's book, where the photos are all in black-and-white....."This 1929 Roadster is resplendent (sp?) in Balsam Green"
Like how can you tell what color it is, in B&W |
