I want to know how the underside of the hood came painted from the factory. It's a 49 Chevy 3600. Is it body color? or is it black to match the inner fenders and radiator support? Thanks.

The underside color on all of my hoods was semigloss primer black. There was overspray of the exterior topcoat.

Correct color for the underside of the hood is black according to my dupont paint chart.
They list a paint number but my chart is so damaged I can't read that number. Sorry, Hobert

I think there was so much overspray it looks body color. So, if you are going for originality, the question is; should it look like it ACTUALLY came from the factory, or how it SHOULD have come from the factory?
