Default Cuestión about paint color

Hey guys! I have some questions regardling Ford paint process and colors... In the pic below you can see a 1928 phaeton door with some paint layers by the time, but first check that I live In Argentina, the second assemble plant In the world and the first In América, the phaeton is a RHD and maybe the paint process and colors were different? I don't know if the bodies came from USA In parts, painted, dissambled with some coat to help with rust? So many questions... If you can see the first layer of paint is black, ( Well black I know from the Barn! Some Ford colors were really dark) second would be a Niagara dark blue paint, third some green paint matches with the gunmetal blue paint? An fourth and superficial bad paint is a light blue paint... I'm confused about the black color because is not a factory Ford color In Usa... And don't know about Ford paint finishes In my country...uploadfromtaptalk1448289018300.jpg

Black WAS a color option in 1928.

Thanks for the reply Brent! I use a phaeton cowl and doors to rebuild my open cab pickup!

In this place you can see only two layers... The black, like a primer layer and the blue paint, so maybe the black was some primer I think!
