How come the factory bike does not have a matched oil tank? Is it supposed to be unrestored?

Eric.

Late 1937 had black oil tanks as standard.

Perry- thanks for the photos. Pete- I didn't know about the black oil bag.

All- I should have specified EL in my original post. This is my 1st EL restoration. I know (think) the ELs and ULs shared the same paint schemes. Does that include the black oil bag on late year models?

1- Would an EL judge please confirm (what Pete wrote) that I should paint the oil bag on my late '37 EL black??? I would like to get it right the 1st time out! I believe you Pete, it's just that I haven't heard this before. And I certainly haven't been around the circuit enough to know for myself.

2- Do we have a correct paint code for the GOLD edging???

thank you.
