I know it was originally black but I am not sure if it was a gloss, matte or flat. Also, does anyone specifically make the paint for the engine compartment? | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | nothing "specific" about it, just satin black, not too many different shades  Bill | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 9,671 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 9,671 | I agree with Bill, but, Eastwood doea make paints specificly for under hood restoration. Never understood why they offer so many different paints but your sure to find one there thats close to the original.
