I started sorting out my project TR4A for painting and realized I don't know which of the small bits are painted body color, black, or left unpainted. So I need help.
Also, what about hardware for these items and for attaching fenders, etc. - bolt heads - painted or unpainted?
Here's my list so far of the 12 items that I need help with with my guesses: Please add any other items that I might have overlooked.
<span style="text-decoration: underline">TR4A Painting Bits</span>
choices:
Paint body color [body color]
Paint black [black]
Unpainted
1-Hood hinges [body]
2-Hood catch plate (on body) [body or zinc(later cars)]
3-Hood pin & catch (on hood) [body]
4-Hood prop rod [black]
5-Radiator support brackets [black]
5a-Grill support tubes [body]
6-Door hinges [body]
6a-Door latches & catches [plain]
6b-Door mechanism hex bolt heads [body]
6c-Door check straps [plain]
7-Windshield post brackets [plain]
8-Gearbox cover [plain fiberboard]
9-Driveshaft cover [body fiberboard]
10-Trunk lid support tube [body]
11-Trunk lid support slider [plain]
12-Trunk lock/latch [plain]
13-Bumper brackets f&r [black]
14-Rear fender outriggers [black]
15-Front fender bolt heads [???]
Like the TR3, parts were painted body color if they were assembled before painting. Variations in other bits are normal from car to car. It's a LBC
