[Tigers] FW: Tiger rear end

[Michael Wood]

I've also heard that keeping the pumpkin in just the Glyptal primer (as pictured and typically done during restorations) isn't actually correct and that the diffs/rear end were painted all black. It may have depended on what day the car was assembled...Fridays and Mondays half painted, mid-week all painted, who knows? lol. But, again, most common is the exposed primer on the pumpkin in restored cars.

Ron,

  

The pumpkins were first dipped in that orangish-red glyptal however they were they painted black on the outside.

                The correct red color according to TBON is Glyptal.

The rest of the paint scheme looks correct – chassis black.

I have a 1966 MK!A am wondering what correct the rear axel scheme should be.  All semi gloss black or the pumpkin painted a redish or orange per below.

  


 If the redish or orange color is correct, does anyone have a rattle can paint code number and brand which would be correct.

  

Regards

Joel Martin
