Painting the undercarriage

[bighealeysource]

Hey all,
Looking to do some refinement on the undercarriage of my
recent BT7 purchase. It was originally a white car but
repainted Healey blue over white coves. Some of the frame
rails and other areas still have the white paint along with
the usual Healey waterproofing - oil, etc . I was thinking
of cleaning it all up as best as possible and using a white
bedliner product that will resist just about everything. I
would rust proof any surface rust, etc before applying the
bedliner product which can be sprayed, brushed or even rolled
on. I could also go with a light blue color that although
is not Healey blue, in the same family of color. I know
color is a personal preference but would y'all agree better
to keep the original white frame rails, floor pans, etc ?
The inner fenders are already black so was not thinking about
changing that color out. If I did guess would spray them
Healey blue. Thanks in advance for your input.
Regards,
Mike

My two cents... paint the frame, underside and inner fenders (wings) blue. The only part on a Healey that was two tone was the coves. The frame and wheel wells should be the same color as the exterior body. Engine compartment too, if that is white. The list goes on and on. Door jams, boot, under dash heater box etc. If the PO only painted the exterior body, then you may have a lot of catch up to do.

All depends on how "correct" you're willing to work towards.
Best of luck.
