Need Pics
 
Does anyone have any pics of the original factory 64-66 engine compartments? I want to paint everything on my 64 project exactly as it was from the factory (as far as colors go). Any info is much appreciated.

I don't have a pic, but the firewall is body color, the inner fenders, radiator support, and misc pcs attached to it are satin black. I'm not sure about the underside of the hood though. I know there are a ton of pics there, but you might look in the '60-'66 picture thread in the sticky section.

These are from a 66 and look to be "factory fresh".

there is some variations on fire wall colors from 1964-66 assembled at different plants.western built trucks seem to have the firewall painted body color.trucks built in eastern factories from my experience are a mixed lot.1964-65 trucks wether tutone or solid color had the firewall painted fawn like the interior.1966 trucks that were tutone had a fawn firewall.1966 solid color trucks had firewall painted body color.i have owned several original trucks and these seem to be the variables.

My 65 has fawn firewall and engine, black inner fenders, air cleaner, heater and under the hood.

Only thing I did was shoot the valve covers (which needs re-done a little nicer)

This is the reason i am asking. I know there were some different variations. My truck came from Missouri. I plan to put it back as original if i can find this info. Thanks for the help guys.
