Sweet. More please. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

Great pics James. Lots of overspray from the cowl paint.

Rear deck lid &amp; back glass filler section stripes redone when the extension of the stripe was added? Great pics btw.. Will we see this in the preservation thread at some point? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[MosportGreen66]

Very nice, thanks for sharing

This looks like the car I saw at a Camaro show in MI at the GM tech center years ago, 15 years ? Is that possible ?

Car was out of New York I believe... waiting on the NCRS. It was partially painted (lacquer) He was going to repaint it... I think I have him talked out of that.

[SS427]

The firewall has a very bleached out almost grey finish on it. I have seen this on many early Camaros regardless of body color and it is not overspray. Does anyone know why this looks this way? I do not know if it is just a very thin coat of black lacquer that fades over the years or what causes it but it is hard to replicate.

[camaromb]

That is the most white stripe over spray I have seen on a later built (05C) Z28, you can clearly see the white on the trim tag and firewall seam sealer highlights. The early Norwood built Camaros were more typically over sprayed excessively with stripe color on the firewall top surfaces, as were the LA built Camaros.

[Steve Shauger]

I believe that is gray primer with a dusting white overspray. Note the surface rust due to virtually no paint(black) other than primer at the upper portion of the fire wall.

It takes a lot of work to replicate the controlled chaos of an assembly line... gun angles and speed make all the difference.

This shows where I scratched off the black and get the grey primer exposed, also the P T B stamps.

The sloppy factory firewall paint is funny. Very few would actually restore a car that way. Just like people fret over perfect panel gaps and perfect straight body panels. That type of perfection never existed when these cars were new.

[camaromb]

On the blue car you can see the transition from firewall black to white over spray quite clearly on the passenger side firewall and on the firewall behind the distributor base (firewall black mostly below on tunnel and more white above on the flat firewall area) and below the wiper motor at the seam is mostly firewall black and more white overspray going upwards. The Fisher body grey I have seen is quite grey, kick panel areas, etc. The firewall black is most often absent in the areas behind the wiper motor, an area that typically rusts. I have an original '69 Camaro with a very crisp mask line for the firewall black, it goes beneath the wiper area, very little paint there.

[m22mike]

Shauger is spot on, your looking at gray primer on the blue car.

Mike

[DarrenX33]

That's a cool car.

[enio45]

looks like my late fathom green car with all the white stripe overspray...very hard to duplicate!

Mike,
I've never seen grey primer over the firewall black. I've seen the grey primer under the dash black and under the firewall black, I've never seen it used over the black paint in these areas. Ed's firewall looks the same, lots of white overspray over the firewall black, Thanks for the pics Ed.

Well aware of that, looking at the close up shot of the trim tag on the blue car, I see gray primer and a lack of blackout all together.

We're seeing the same thing Mike. There is no blackout on the upper portion of the firewall that I can see just gray primer. There's not much paint covering the upper firewall, hence the rust...

I'm going by a small picture so it's hard to make a definitive statement. Could the blackout be covered by the white stripe overspray making it look gray...sure.
