On an original hood for a '49 Chevy 1/2-ton, what color was the beveled underside of the hood (surface on which the rubber stops are mounted)? Was it body color or black? Thanks.

Not sure if its correct or not , but my 53 was body color. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong.

The edge I think your describing would have been painted the body color. The underside of the hood should be a somewhat flat black color with overspray from painting the edges.
