Does anyone know if the these areas were painted originally, were they maybe red, or possibly painted to match the body? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2000 Posts: 784 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2000 Posts: 784 | Kip - You got it right. The grooves were painted red, the same as the lettering.

I'm on to figuring out how to straighten and repair the lower grill. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 85 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 85 | If think the hub caps were painted red & blue? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,048 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,048 | Thanks '46, Looks like I can see a little Blue in the embossed Chevrolet letters and some red in those other embossed stripes. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 1,158 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 1,158 | Kip:
I have some stock hubcaps that still have paint on them. I can take a picture of one of them when I get home if you like.
