Does it have a touch of grey to it? Or like an egg shell black?

not eggshell - semi-gloss, Auto industry didn't use "fashion" finishes in the '60's. 

Doubt Shelby mixed with gray, semi-gloss black can take a gray-ish depending on other factors.

+1 . The fashion finish put a smile on my face  :). Thank you for that.
