Welcome to the Forum!
If you're concerned with originality, the body was painted uniformly top and bottom - same paint on the underside as the top.
'67 is one of the best years for the B; some say the best and most desirable. Be sure to post pictures, if you have them.

Yup, the 67 is the best of all worlds. It keeps the classic grille and dash, has the 5-main engine, and has none of the bad juju (smog equipment, removed carburetor, abingdon pillow, 60s styling touches (grilles) and worst of all raised ride height/rubber bumpers) that came later.

Welcome! I have a ~'69 MGB~ . But I agree; I thing the '67 is really the best version.

Welcome to the forum! Best place in the world if your rebuilding a British car. Don't hesitate to ask questions, no matter how trivial they may seem. This forum has the best collection of experts on these cars you'll find anywhere. It's nice to know that another one of our favorite little cars is being saved. PJ

Do not use the rubberized undercoating spray whatever you do. This stuff is a gooey nasty mess that just isn't worth the trouble. If your trying to skimp a bit I found that the spray on truck bed liner works good but if you want to spend a little extra on a coating that will never fail even when you want to sand it off for another one. Try this stuff called POR-15 (Internet searches will find a nearby dealer). Do not paint this onto anything you want to paint later. Nothing will stick to it and a grinder has trouble getting it off of metal once it has cured.
Well, thanks for the replies to my first post. Someone said the whole car was painted the same, top and bottom, but the bottom side and fender wells seem to have some other additional coating, same color as the paint.
I'd like to post pictures, but will need some instruction on how to do this. Suggestions/ guidance please. Thanks.
I built an auto rotisserie very recently so now I can roll the car over to access all sides.

If you find a 'salmon-y' color underneath or in the fender wells (especially the rear ones) that's the factory primer.......Mickey is right that the entire car was painted the same color - with the same paint...should be no differences.
