I did a search on this and the answers seem to go both ways, maybe it's a model year thing. Anyway I need to know on a '68 if the inside of the front lower valance panel needs to be painted semi-gloss black or body color. Thanks for any help, RonM.

All the origional cars I've taken apart over the years had some body color overspray on the backsides, which were black. One as recently as last year. They were never fully covered in body color or black as you see on so many cars painted now. Unfortunately, not many people today have seen origional cars. And I have not seen the hundreds that my friends have had their hands on. http://camaros.org/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=vdllh9o081lcqg7nl0ldn3bp37&topic=823.0
The front lower valance was a Chevrolet-sourced part, and was dip-primed/flow-coated with black primer (just like the hood, fenders, header, fender extensions, etc.), and later got varying levels of color overspray on its back side when the outer surfaces were color-topcoated while mounted on the paint buck.
