Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / June 2005Engine area paint color?
I have a 63 Avanti and was getting ready to paint the engine area. I always assumed it would be the body color. But found this one on EBAY and the engine bay area is painted black. And the ad states its really an original car. So which one is right? Thanks Malcom http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6466&item=4553 851089&rd=1 It is body color, the ebay owner is incorrect. > I have a 63 Avanti and was getting ready to paint the engine area.

Probably explains the engine bay paint, and at least belies the 'original' claim > I have a 63 Avanti and was getting ready to paint the engine area. I always > assumed it would be the body color.
