The 68 PON-built GTO has the typical medium % gloss Black firewall.
I'll throw a curveball at you: the 69 vert I am finishing, early Arlington build, originally limelight, came from the factory with a BROWN painted firewall. I can state this with over 99% certainty as the car had about 40K on it, was never restored, and pristine brown paint was evident underneath everything I removed from the firewall, in addition to the somewhat faded brown paint evident everywhere else on the firewall.
