Title: Fan blades
Post by: RAY on July 17, 2022, 13:57:23

What colour should the fan blades be in a 1969 280 ?

I currently have the radiator out and would like to clean mine up and possibly paint them if they where originaly painted.

They are currently a corroded aluminium with no sign of any original paint.

I believe they were a raw aluminum casting.

When I had mine off and out for changing the radiator some years back, I had the fan powder coated in a raw aluminum silver color.
