Default Re: Red Oxide Primer..

Willow Run, MI apparently used it as an alternate on the Nova's bec/ the majority of Novas are black primer. It's just neat to see something different.

We rubbed on Benjamin's '69 Nova yesterday for a few hours, and started to scotch brite the firewall a little. It appears to have red oxide primer under there, quite surprised since the entire underside was black.

Is it possible that the same car could have two different primers used on it?

BTW, didn't find any codes on the firewall - yet. Bummer, I was hoping something would jump right out, like 'L78'

Cool. You're getting pix, right?

Now I guess I'll have to check my little '69. No traces in the trunk; I was there yesterday getting pix of the spatter paint for another member.

I have 2 Arlington Chevelle's both have the red oxide primer on floors.Both are 71's. Something interesting happens to primer as it age's on one of my cars the primer faded a little as you get out towards the rocker area. It turns a pinkish rose color. It must pick up some UV Rays somehow.
