What is the correct color pattern for the 442 front grill? I'd like to restore it in the spring. Is it all black except for the center chrome bar?  |

No...... the thin bars above and below the main center bar were chrome too.

Is it flat black or glossy black? Mine is too worn to tell. |

Isn't the big face of the center bar where the letters are silver as well ?

Yes, and as I found out by looking at an NOS grill at the Nationals this year, the inside of each letter is black. How they painted them back in the day without taking a week to each one is beyond me.

OK- I can see that the O, D are black inside- is the E also black as well? I'm re-doing my grille to match what it should be.
