[Roadsters] 1969 Datsun Roadster

[Dave Sommers]

All engine bays were the body color.  The only area always flat black was that right behind the front grill opening forward of the radiator.  If entire engine bay is black it was probably rattlecanned to that color.  Sadly, Very common for this to be done to so many cars.
