[FC] engine compartment color

[hallgrenn at aol.com]

Ed,
In my experience the engine compartment for all FCs was painted the same dark gray Chevy used for all trucks.  I looked in an ex-Bell FC at the Corvair Ranch two weeks ago and (if memory serves) it was the same dark gray Chevy truck color as my '64.

Am I correct in assuming all FC's for all years no matter the body style were 
body color in the engine compartment. I'm running into a problem with my ex-Bell 
phone van. Right now the compartment is black (and dirty) but since the van was 
originally painted Bell Green by GM would they have painted in this area also? I 
can see no sign of green paint not even on the inside of the trap door.Anyone 
know and have an opinion of what should be done. Thanks. Ed  Dade City,Fl
