Alright, I need help. I'm getting ready to build the AMT 1966 Galaxie. I looked online at 6 of the 1:1 cars and all of them had flat black floor and trunk pans with a gloss or semi gloss frome and suspension parts. Aren't the floors n 3rd member supposed to be red oxide ? *NM*

- Great question - Nick "Z-Man" Zuk was there when they were flying down the line
  - UPDATE: From the 7-Litre Group on FB - red oxide, with liberal application of black sound deadener
    - Thank you very much for the info. *NM*
  - I'm assuming that the sound deadener / under coat was sprayed before the body went onto the frame? I also saw several black gas tanks. It'd be nice to know what else was coated besides the floor pans, if anything. *NM*
