Thank you Bill.Valuable information and links you posted.,. More questions
: was the K member painted black or just natural metal color? Were the
outside of the inner fenders ( front wheelwells) also painted body color
or black? Now the hard one-- what color was the factory upper A frames and
lower control arms, spindle, lower ball joint arm and strut rod?
I AN A HAPPY GUY! all things came together today and I got my front sub

On B (and A) bodies the inner fenders and firewall were painted the same
car was main body colour. No black firewalls on Mopar vehicles (with,
perhaps, a couple of exceptions). There may be differences in colour to
the eye due to the underhood areas not being exposed to the sun while the
exterior of the car was.
So you basically need one paint for both jobs.

Subject: paint color
I need to get a quart of paint for my inner fenders and firewall. This
is for my 64 Dodge440 and I want as close a match as I can to the
factory red color. I want urathane rather than base coat-clearcoat. I
do have an old color chip chart that gives the DuPont number. for
factory paint. Also need something that will be available in a couple
of years when I paint the rest of the car. Any help is
appreciated............................MO
