    Fan Shroud Color

    Looking for the wisdom of the Forum. My understanding is that the fan shrouds were painted by model: T painted yellow; E painted Green; S painted Red - all that said I have no technical basis for that and was trying to find some.

    Does anyone know (a) if the shroud colors were by model, and (b) the color scheme if so.

    Thanks

    Those are the correct Gelcoat colors, not paint. At some point I think T's where black.

    Shrouds in color

    Here is the offering from Damon at Series 900 in Vermont.

    The colors are correct gel coat. The clear can be tintied by Damon to be old vintage, fresh clear and tints in between.
