Ray, here is something to remember, you and i both shop at HL and if you buy a can of Krylon short cuts flat black it is a perfect satin and i use it on interiors and chassis without anything else. Try it.
I not sure of the exact year but i would like to see the 61-63 Ford pickup with the camper with it. i remember seeing them but never owned on. I have no idea if the tooling is still around. I would love to see the pinto come back..
