Anyone out there with an original 356 Roadster??
Want to know if the engine compartment was painted as the color of the car or just BLACK????

Need info ASAP since we are ready to paint.
I want my car to be restored as it was out of the factory.

Thanks

In the link I posted he is there with an email link. And if you search the internet you can find Roadster ads of restored cars for sale showing the engine compartment like this ad: http://www.fantasyjunction.com/cars/175 ... 4-Cylinder
