If you wet sand it with fine sand paper and hit it with semi gloss clear, it will look brand new. Thats what I did on my 69.

I believe they were painted from the factory. All the ones I ever saw were either a semi-gloss black or gloss black.

Are you talking the one on the firewall in the engine compartment or the interior side? Trevor

Ohhhh... Ok, you are talking about the lowest portion. I was talking about the diverted and portions that hold the evap and heater core.
As I recall, the lower in cab part is indeed a charcoal metallic paint. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Posted via Mobile Device |
