Bill Stewart Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Somewhere I read that the correct color for the engine area including firewall on the 36 is black, not the body color. True? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary W Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I don't know about '36, but '37 firewall is painted body color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stewart Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 Could somebody who has an original 36 let me know whether their car was built with a black firewall (on a car that is not black)? Somewhere I read that 1936 is the only year where all cars (or maybe just Roadmasters----but that doesn't make much sense) were built with black firewalls. Restored cars that I have seen invariably have body color firewalls. Could everybody be wrong!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pont35cpe Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Firewall same color as body on my `36 40 series.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonMicheletti Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 "Restored" cars are not necessarily correct to original build. The only thing for sure is an unrestored car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pont35cpe Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 My `36 had the original Cardinal Maroon on before being stripped to bare metal.. body/firewall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stewart Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Thanks everybody. Sounds like 36 firewalls were painted the body color just like all the other years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
