Have seen several different schemes in the Oliver mags and on the web. What is correct, red or green wheels? axle color? does the red on the front carry on down the side of the frame? I found an old black and white ad that had the red colored in and looks like it goes all the way down the frame. Thanks for any info! Randy [Reply]   [No Email]

I have had this question posted in some of the other forums and have got no reply's at all. I do like the contrast between the green and the red and and will use the last photo as my guide.

My opinion is that the majority of the 60's were originally All Red wheels, with Green Hubs and Bolts front and rear. The stripe extended down the side in a tapered fashion as depicted in your last picture of the '41. The radiator "lid" was accented with red in the grooves. I believe it looks a little nicer to have rear axles black which necessitates removing rear hubs to get them nice. A lot of repaints just paint hubs and wheels together but my opinion looks better and more factory with the contrasts. Just another two cents. :D This post was edited by 60 Fan at 08:00:31 11/24/12.
