On my 66 SS I did the firewall body color, after I smoothed it a little. Powdercoated the inner fenderwells gloss black along with the rad support. I too used bedliner on the floorpans/trunkpans both underneat and inside, it rally worked great. While I am on it, there was a post about powder coating frames. Both the Chevelle and Corvette were frame off and I powdercoated everything metal that I could. I drive both and have not had any issues with it releasing. If I scratch the frame on a jack or lift it is easy to just touch it up with a rattlecan. I am a fan or powdercoating it has worked very well for me.. as someone else on the list says, that's my 2 cents..

Do what looks good to you. I prefer to break up the body color, but that's my opinion.

What's the current trend or opinion about the color of the firewall, fenderwells, & core support? Body color or black? Keep in mind that originality is not an issue on this one. Thanks for the input!
