If I'm not mistaken hoods were casually shot with a flat black primer underneath, and then a lot of body color overspray on top of that. Sometimes all body color. Firewall was body color, fender skirts, frame and radiator wall were satin black. Duller than semi-gloss black that Ford used.
But I could be wrong
