Hi,



I'm into building model cars, the plastic kit kind, and I'm building a AMT 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Club Victoria. The car is already painted Raven Black, and will have the light gray/dark gray interior. The only part I'm in doubt are the floor pans. All cars I saw had black floor pans, some were flat, and some were gloss. I want to build an accurate model, so I think the correct would be to paint the floor pan red oxide primer, and add some body color overspray on the sides, rear wheel wels, and trunk floor, then to paint the frame semi gloss black. Can anyone say if the car really came this way? I believe it should be the way I just told, becausemany other FoMoCo cars of the period were fabricated this way, and I really doubt Ford would have had the trouble of painting the floor pans of the cars black, but I'm not 100% sure. Any help, ore even somepictures would be great!!



Here are some of my built models if you got curious about them:
