+1 on being bare but depending one year and model all kinds of paint color marks plus an engineering number stenciled on. In one of Colin's books (think it is one of his) is a picture of a very early HP289 dressed to go into a new Cobra at SAI with transmission attached and on the side of the iron cased Galaxie transmission is stenciled a large number.
