I'm back at helping dad do some more work on his 68 SD. We are having a hard time figuring out the interior trunk color. I am unable to find definitively if it is supposed to be body color or the splatter paint can anyone help us out? Pics seem to vary as I look thru them.

68's have been reported as "both" splatter and body colour same with firewalls some body colour or black
Must be a transition time ??

paint it body colour then splatter over top then you will be correct for either way !!

The 68s were body-coloured on the firewall and in the trunk. 1969 they switched to black firewall & spatter-paint trunk.

I don't know 68's, but yes, in the past there have been people post here saying their original paint 68's were spatter and people saying their original paint 68's were body colour.

Build date on the car would give a hint. Early production would be body colour assuming a change over.
