Just busy making things a bit prettier under the bonnet ready for when the engine goes back in & I have a question.
What colour should the upper radiator mounting panel be? Mine seems to be a silvery sort of hammerite-ish finish & it doesn’t look right

It should be black.
As everyone seems to use it as a tool tray when working under the bonnet the paint does seem to get chipped so I had some stainless steel one made up a few years ago.

I did mine a couple of years ago with gloss black from Halfords, the finish of the black paint was not very good so I did it in body colour (Silver Birch). I prefer the way it looks !  |

I thought my car was clean but yours and George's really are minters in all respects. Credit to you both and their distant future owners.
