Did anything determine whether a car had a grey or black dash, or was it
just random on the assembly line?

Eric, The dash can be wrinkle painted black and then a light coat, really
light coat of eastwood detail gray can be placed over the black, just enough
to cover the black and there you go.  I have done several dashes this way
with excellent results.
 
Hmmm....  Perhaps a dash rehab demo at Shasta???? Just a thought

Thanks, Gerardo
