Engine Compartment Colors
In response to a color question from Jim793 in another thread. The engine compartment in all three years was always painted the same color as the body. This includes the hood, inner fender panels, fire wall, radiator support and panels on either side of the radiator.
It was common practice in the auto body repair business to "black out" an engine compartment when repainting the car in a different color from original.
