Under the hood has been painted black before
I wish it was restricted to brand X people but I have seen/known a number of Mopar guys who happily painted their engine compartments black; gloss black, satin black, flat black, etc... I once had a guy at a car show tell me that they "all" were that way... I looked around a bit confused, but he quickly stated that he knew this to be a fact because the radiator support was painted black behind the grille.... I had no words..
Pretty common. Our Belvedere was also Chevyized sometime before we bought it.
My underhood paint is same as 1974 AND I resent that remark(I was young,then)Under the hood has been painted black before
Mine was Chevyized when I got it. Now it is being re- moparized.
