Re: paint- front wheelwells and suspension




Those Mosher shots make me nervous. The factory color of the undersides of the body are not black. They are a lighter color like gray or greenish color- I'm color blind so I'm not really sure. While I think the suspension is correct, I feel less confident now seeing the wrong color for the underbody.

And some on early B Body cars.

If you are consistent with what you do, yours will look fine.

Do you mean the splash shields on the wheel side of the inner fenders?
Thanks,

From: "MO ( Steve Mick)" Hi all, I am getting ready to paint firewall and inner fenders. Also front suspension.. They don't need to be exactly factory correct, but similar. I know the firewall and inner fenders are body color.. On the wheelside of the inner fenders, wrere they also body color or black?. I have painted the K frame a satin black. Any ideah on the upper A frames, lower control arms, spindle, and lower ball joint? If not factory correct, what colors did you paint yours to get a nice contrast and a factory appearance? Anything that was unpainted natural metal, I will paint it with a metal colored paint to keep from rusting. Thanks for any input...................MO
