Looks silver to me

I think they are silver, but will clean them properly.  But strange to see there are 2 diferent 1971 stickers

Interesting way to see if there was an air pump on the engine.  I think Gab Ringette's #48 had this question. His hood was painted with no sticker.

I looked at #13 photos but the hood was replaced according to Mark so no sticker. It also has the reinforcing,

#57 was Canadian and had no airpump.

And there where at least 2 types of hoods, before the reinforced one came

There MAY be as many as 4 different decals for 1971

Can you tell us about the two types of hoods? Pics? Thank you!

Here are a couple of old threads discussing early hoods, with pictures of the two early and later types.

Look guys, I see people going off the rails talking about Mr K. This not the thread. The topic is the Mint 240Z. Let's stay on topic,  shall we?

I can’t stop myself to post this , I found the green car has the basements  for the sun visors . I have been wanting to know when our cars have got the basement . 

My 03/1970 car doesn’t have it , according to the parts catalog , our cars appeared that no basement with the sun visors until the third revision of the catalog ( June 1970) issued .

The second revision was issued March 1970 , so the change was made in between these two periods . April ? May ? 
 

This green car tells us at least in May 1970 our cars have the basement with the sun visors.

@katsMy co-owned Feb 1970 did not have the plastic base:

 

I wish I still had it ?
