The bodies look to me like they were designed to be dipped, but that may 
have just been for a prime coat or something.  I have a hard time believing 
that the final finish is that of a dip, but I don't really know.  I'm sure 
the paint was dry before anything else was installed, because the headliner 
and the tape I referred to show no sign of messing up a wet paint film.

Strange and awkward would be right!
