Re: 1955 paint colors and codes and thief proof (theft proof ) numbers

A search here does show there were only a few dash paint colors so any and all light and dark green cars would get the dark green dash and any red interior cars got the 1 red dash etc. I am surprised by the lack of tar based undercoat in the wheel wells and the red primer on the rf inner fender as was mentioned above. If this is a southern car perhaps these did not get the heavy undercoat treatment as discussed in my question in an earlier thread?
Thanks Howard for the 56 illustration showing where the factory sound deadener was applied. But a southern car with the underseat heater option seems even stranger.
I am just trying to get info on the way these cars were delivered from the factory as there were some differing opinions on this the first time i posted queries.
