Default 3 door floor colours

I've got two 3 doors, one black and one white both genuine cos shells but the black one is painted grey inside on the floors whereas the white one it white inside. The odd thing is that the white one doesn't look like it has been painted inside there really isn't any traces of grey anywhere. Both are painted grey underneath up the trans tunnel etc like they all seem to be. Any ideas? Maybe the White one was a replacement she'll from ford? Doesn't really matter I'm just curious s it's going for paint soon so could put it back to grey if that's what it should be. Thanks!

They are original.... I have a mate with a black one who has lots of original ford photos. White ones were white as is yours and I believe blue ones are grey like the black ones.

Maybe they were a bit short on black and moonstone paint at the time?! Lol

They are Dolphin grey underneath from memory, with overspray of the cars colour along some bits and a few patches of black added in around some points

Lol sounds like ford! They were definitely a bit tight when it came down to corrosion protection
