The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Fuel shut-off valve

All of the originals that I have seen in my 50 years of 'fiddling' with these, have not been painted - just a plain metal finish. Maybe lacquered, I don't know about any protection that might have been put on the bare metal.

All of the reproductions that I have seen, have had the handle left unpainted.
