Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
Almost everything I've ever seen has been some sort of semi gloss or flat black... OR body color. I've always liked the blackout look. Factory was black.

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
I read a post the guy said that factory inner fenders had more sheen. The picture was an unmolested truck with low miles. I'll see if I can locate the thread.
Post #3 16K miles. looks like the rest of the engine bay, satin black. Can't find the other I mentioned, but black satin seems to be real popular. Perhaps that was factory.......... http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=311191

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
..some great ideas folks..The color really doesn't have to lean toward "factory"..I may choose to paint them the same color as the turquoise body..actually seeing some painted and installed really helps.. Thanks

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
I powdercoated mine satin black. Durable, and approximately the correct sheen.
If I had to paint them, I recommend SEM underhood black if you're using a rattlecan.

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
Gloss black and everything else pretty much satin black. You can see more on my build thread.

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
Wow, those are pretty underhoods!
I bought some Eastwood Chassis Black, I may give that a try for mine. Mine have been black epoxy primed though. |

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
That's the best looking fender in the thread AND the exact paint I recommended, though entirely by coincidence. But it looks great. Can't believe I only discovered this SEM paint 3 years -after- I was done my restoration!

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
I've heard good things about that paint. Looks super. Any two stage satin blacks out there?

Re: what color did you paint your inner fenders
I kind of prefer body color. As I repaint this time around I will color match it again.
