Yeah, that had me stumped too, yours definitely looked like it had never had it anywhere, and for sure under the headliner where it was bare metal.
Mine has grey vynacote over the body colour on the floor, so I'm assuming that the body went through the normal painting process, then the vynacote was applied further on down the line.
I spoke to the original owner on Tuesday and he confirmed that the interior finish is as he received it when new. He put a piece of carpet in the back the day after he got it and it stayed almost scratch-free.
With regard to my Dad's ute having white paint in the tray, it was a Belmont and one of the very first built, as he got it the day that the HQ was released. That was a memorable day..... the HQ looked space-aged compared to a HG, even in Belmont trim. (Dad! Where are the quarter windows!?)
