IT depends...
Sometimes they were painted dash color sometimes they were not, it seems that if the car was built at a GMAD plant such as Van Nuys they had the tag painted because the VIN was assigned to the car body earlier, whereas Norwood the dash was completed prior to the VIN being assigned.
I am going to pose the question regarding VN... the Norwood cars had the cowl VIN rolled after the body was painted... was the same process used at VN?
Or at VN were the VIN numbers rolled in prior to paint?
