I read the following question recently on facebook, but no clear  answer =
was given. Does anybody know, especially to the cross panel in front of =
the radiator?

Is it right that the lower lip on the rear shroud was painted =
(semigloss) black on 6 cylinder Austin-Healeys and the same was with the =
cross panel front face in front of the radiator? Are there other body =
panels which are not just bolt on painted in black?
