What color are the boards in the boot painted on a 52 mm. Are they black or silver.

I've never seen boot boards on ANY Minor that came in silver from the factory. Flat black, surely.

On my 65 they are flat black. On the 52 they are silver. If silver is incorrect I will paint them flat black.
Thanks for the reply
Doug

My '54 boards are black. Never seen silver boot boards on any Morris Minor I have looked round at the Nationals before now...….
Best wishes,
Mike.

I'd have to agree with John and Mike. I have never seen anything other than black boards.
I have a very original 52 sidevalve tourer that has been untouched since the late sixties and it has got black boards and I'm pretty sure they have never touched or repainted.
