Me too. Mopar engine compartments must be body color. The PO of my '69 Dart not only did the underhood area black, but he sprayed it with the rubberized stuff you dip tool handles in.
This looks like a great project.
I know a young man that has a 10 second small block , 68 barracuda, street car . Pretty nice car, runs great, and his engine bay is black, doesn`t bother him or me !
