1920s Dodge Brothers parts finish

Hi, 

I'm trying to find what the correct finish should be in a few parts of my 1928 Dodge tourer that I'm mid way through restoring.

 

Does anyone know how the North East generator and starter motor bodies were finished - were they painted (presumably black) or where they played (nickel)?

 

Also, the front housing of the starter, was it just a raw casting or would it have had a finish?

 

Many thanks,

Richard

Hi RichBad, 

The starter body was painted black as well as the strap to cover the brushes On my Senior 2249 there was remnants of grey on the mounting housing The end plate that is pot metal is unpainted The Generator was the same Grey on the mount black and pot metal
