When you get through all the metal work the Parts Place has the correct water-proof splatter paint to finish it off with the original look.

Last Post! I promise! lol

There are two three piece repop trunk pans available for these cars. The ones you used are from Classic Reproductions in Greenville OH. They are patterned after the 70-72 trunk pans that have a different hump on the shelf. They are identified by the bare metal, uncut drain holes and lack of definaition since the dies have been in use since the eighties. Still a good piece and we use them often.

The other three piece, made in asia, is easily identified by the black ecoat. They are patterned after a 68-69 trunk. I must note that the hump changed around April 69 and the late cars used the 70 style hump.
