The firewall got 'blackout' paint....semi-flat or satin black paint. But, if you have A/C, the fiberglass A/C plenum was left unpainted.

Hi Wes,
I believe that typically the just the truly 'vertical' part of the firewall received black-out.
It was painted to about where the 'bend' for the toe boards and transmission tunnel began.
In a way this was true for the fender aprons too. The paint was applied to the surfaces that faced the engine but faded as the they curved outward to the fenders.
Regards,
Alan
