Does anyone know the original color of the engine and its components on trucks of the early forties? Were the exhaust and intake manifolds painted, if so what colors?
Thanks.

The engine was a grey color. Jim Carter and Fillingstation have the color. The intake was cast iron grey. The exaust was either cast iron grey or black.


If it doesn't have a bowtie it's just an imitation.
