I'm almost done reassembly of the engine for my '35 1 1/2T, painted the "small parts" today but am still undecided what to do with the transmission. I'm thinking 3 options with extra options if I go with #1. So this is what I'm thinking, #1 paint the trans black (If I go this route, then I need to decide if I go, gloss, semi-gloss of flat although I would lean towards semi gloss). #2 paint the trans the same colour as the engine or #3 don't paint it at all. The engine is painted Ford green (model A colour) with black oil pan n(semi gloss). Thoughts?
