I am restoring a 36 Ruby, the original colour of which I know to be dark blue. While dismantling I have found items such as the petrol tank, "cow horns", steering column and brake drum back plates to be body coloured. The paint seems to be original with no other colours under it. I have not noticed anything similar on my other Ruby. Were these parts painted in the factory to the exterior colour of the body. What have other people found on their cars?
