I was cleaning up my front hubs prepairing them for new bearings, check runout and to be media blasted on some of the external heavy rusty area and noticed what looks to be paint on them. I've had the car for over 35 years and never painted them. Does anyone know if these were natural, painted black then machined or painted all black after machining?
The second image is a crop of a St. Louis engine drop shot from one of John H.'s PowerPoints. In this image the hub looks to be natural cast iron. I don't think the hub is judged because it's not visable without removing the hubcap but I would still like to get it correct. Any ideas?


Thanks!
Mike
