I need a little more info.
Were the rumble seat hinges, seat retaining clips and striker plates painted at the same time as the lid itself? If not what colour?
Also the brass? infill buttons that fill some of the unused holes in the floor pan and also the inside of the sills, put in after or before the body was painted?
Thanks
Graham

Likely all of the components attached to the rumble lid were attached prior to the painting of the lid. The plug buttons were likely to have had an S-2 finish (raven), like most of the fasteners used on the chassis.
