Wheel centre painting and pin stripe.

I think export models have a red centre stripe, sliver pin stripe on either side. I have a 1952 G80S exported to NZ. I'm sure I read somewhere this was correct-can't remember where off hand. Black was home market

If you had a black tank the wheel centres were black.
If you had a red tank ditto.

It would look daft otherwise wouldnt it?

Bugger, now my tank is not the correct colour!

My 1950 model 18AJS has its original rims and has what is left of a black centre with gold pin striping either side.
