Re: engine compartment



my 65 wagon light blue original paint is got flat black misted as did my 63 belvedere which was white and my 65 500 which is ee1 dark met blue had the original paint also and it was body color so i would say that the light cars did get a crappy flat black spray job on the  core support just my observation from 3 of the original paint 63 and 65 mopars that i have owned all 3 original paint on them
