Attempting a near-perfect restoration and keep uncovering evidence that the radiator fan shroud was originally satin black. Did they not paint the shrouds (?and radiators?) red on the assembly line? I have Guy Fay"s book on the numbered series Farmalls, but (from memory at the moment) I don"t recall any mention of the fan shroud being black.

Also, what color should the cap/lid be painted on the optional air intake pre-cleaner with the 6" plastic dust bowl? Mine was painted white by the previous owner, but I"ve seen silver, cream, and red. Thanks. Bob

The fan shroud most likely was dipped in black paint after it was made to prevent it from rusting while in storage. Once installed on the tractor, it would have been painted red right along with everything else.

I believe the original color of the pre-cleaner lid was silver.
