Fan Guard 100-4

[cheapskate]

Was the fan guard on the 100-4 originally painted red, or is it supposed to be black like the radiator?

Thanks in advance.

The guard should be painted black. The fan blades, red.

My original ali prop blade was painted silver!

I'm only going by the Concours guide lines & a few other Hundreds that I have seen.

"The fan itself was cast aluminum & painted red, as were the mounting bolts."

BTW, the cast aluminum fans are somewhat prone to losing a blade. Check it carefully.

Thanks for the input. I will leave the shroud black and check my red fan for cracks.

Thanks again
