    62 grille black color

    I have what I think is a silver 61 grille in my 62.

    I am hoping I can just paint it black.

    What black should I use? gloss, med. gloss, etc.

    thanks, Chris

    I think it should be along the line of a semi gloss or maybe semi flat. HOWEVER, it has been fairly well documented that at least some 62's were delivered with a gold grille. May be your grille was one of these and has faded to silver? You may want to investigate a little further before you paint.

      I had a gold grill in my 62, vin #2000 that I think was original. I bought the car in the early 80's and it seemed to be unmolested. Incidently, it was a 340 horse car.
