I picked this G3L spares list up recently.

Its quite interesting in that it gives the colours of individual parts.





Page 4, crank cases ect, Khaki-green.



Page 8, Carburetter, Dull Chromium plate.



Page 32, Battery, Unfinished, Natural colour of material.



Knew you would find all that interesting Rob.

Yes Rob. I noticed in mine that it states painted parts for crank case and timing cover etc.


Did you get the GPO picture I sent you?

Yes I did thanks Ron, it would appear to be a 1935 4.99 h.p. BSA combination.

Khaki Green crankcases ex-works ? Do the photographs of this contract support that ?

I see that batteries and covers were 'unfinished' ? That'll please Ian as he can't bring himself to paint them !

Some of the pictures in O&M show painted timing covers and gearbox's. Ron
