<div>Thank you Randy. Interesting. My door hinge area looks the same. I'll have to look in some more areas to see. </div>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space">Shawn, my BN2 100M had both reddish brown and black primer. Seemed to vary. The door hinges were painted on the car and there is black primer when hinges removed. See photo; Black also
appears a couple other places but the majority of the chassis is primed in reddish brown.

</div>
<div>BTW, it was a 33,000 mile car with original paint and never apart before.</div>

<div>Hello all. I have noticed my BN2 has black factory primer (possible single stage paint that body color was painted over when assembled- much like eletro coat primer that repo parts have on them). All later cars (BN4 on) that I have had experience
with had red oxide primer used from the factory. Does anyone know was there a switch point? Were all 100's primered black? Were all cars eletro coated, and later cars primed with red oxide additionally? Was elctro coating even a thing back then? Just curious.</div>
