From the Judging standards.Pg. 9-2 The Bars where painted Body Colour The centre cover was Nickel plated 28-29 and polished Stainless 30 -31. I have a 28 Sport Coupe and I keep finding info that says the bars where painted Black? I hope others will chime in.

BUT, one can also see them painted BLACk in photos from Long Beach Assembly, just possible this was a supervisory plant error, and yes , this is in 1930. Best to stay with the Standards, Fine Pointer or not. jiml...
