41 buick paint questions

what color is used on the engine bay, the trunk, and the underside? where these body colors or black?

thanks.

The firewall is body colour for sure. I can take a look at my car Monday to verify some of the other locations. I'm pretty sure the under side of the trunk lid is also the same colour as the outside. I'm not sure what colour the inside of the trunk is as it is covered with cloth.

As a suggestion, get a copy of William Anderson's book "Restoration Facts: 1941 Buick". You can also e-mail him questions via the BCA web site technical support menu.

thanks gentlemen. new project and way before my time. any help is appreciated. someone painted the firewall black and the inside of the trunk (not the lid) has some kind of undercoating that gets soft if the car is in the sunshine. the under side is an oily mess which i am currently working on finding the source.
