[AJD] AR Radiator core

[Tommy Wilson]

I need some opinions. I have a new core to go in the radiator of my 
AR. What should I do about painting it? I plan on painting the frame 
pieces green and don't want to get too much paint on the fins. Should 
I leave it the copper color it is? Should I paint it black like one 
would come from a radiator shop? Or should I paint it green?

Also concerning the front hubs. I've seen some pictures of 
reproductions where the hub was green and the rim was yellow. This 
would seem likely if the tractor came down the production line with 
the hubs already on it. But in several early pictures, and backed up 
by the paint on the hubs, they are yellow meaning that the hub and 
rim was put on at a point after the green paint booth. I plan on 
masking the hubs when painting the green and then paint the hubs and 
the rims yellow. Any comments? Thanks....TW
