What years/models used what? I'm pretty sure that at least some of my Canadian GMs from the 1970s used spatter, but never really paid much attention to it back then.

Some Canadian GM cars were built on US lines so they got splatter paint
A while back this discussion came up regarding Beaumont's. It seems by reading this, the jury is out. Could be during 68 it changed from body colour? ---
if the firewall is body colour the trunk is the same G M went to lauqer
paint in 1969 fire wall black like floor boards and they used splatter paint in the trunk
I recall people being very hard on green cars since way back when. With the odd exception I've always liked green on cars, especially the darker shades.

I concur, 1969 was the model year that Beaumonts switched to spatter paint in the trunk & black on the firewall. The deciding factor was the switch from enamel to lacquer.
