Original Wheel Paint Color
Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2019 4:03 am
I have a black '47 KBs5 in original paint, but the wheel paint has long since flaked away. Was there a standard paint color for the wheels out the factory gate? As you can imagine black and white photos from the era haven't been much help...My impression from illustrated period advertisements is that the wheels were typically the same color as the body, with some variation when it comes to two tone body/fenders, is this true? I would like to keep the appearance true to the era as best I can. Advice? Thanks gents...
