I spray painted the underside, wheel wells and engine compartment flat black. I then did a quick spray of flat grey in the engine compartment. After masking, I sprayed a quick layer of flat white, not worrying too much about getting into the recesses. The black, then grey, then white layers will create some depth under the final paint color before I even get to the aging process.
Next up was the final coat of Testors Fiery Orange. Wow! This is one awesome color! 
The engine compartment is now body color and the whole piece is ready for its place in the assembly. The nice thing about doing the engine compartment before painting the body is that I can try things out here. Even though this will be a barn find car, it's better to experiment with the lesser seen places first.
