MG TD TF 1500 - Wheel stud lug nut and bulkehesd finish

Hi TDers: I am in the last stages of a frame up restoration of a 1953 TD and need to know the finish of the wheel studs lug nuts. I also need to know the color of bulkhead foot plate (Moss 450-785).Is it body color or black? Or one color in the engine side and another in the cockpit side? Thank you very much.

check out the Original TD midget pages on this website at http://www.mgcars.org.uk/mgtd/mgtd_finishes.htm

Chris Couper lists colours for various parts of the TD

You will find the firewall is painted both side the same as the body colour

Cheers

Stuart, if you are speaking of the lower bulkhead, it is generally painted black on both sides. The upper portion is painted body color.
The wheel nuts were probably plain unpainted steel originally, but I painted mine with a light spray of cadmium looking paint so they wouldn't rust.
