Dash: Semi-gloss black (John Deere calls it blitz black)
Seat frame: Semi-gloss black
Seat cushions: Black
Gas cap: Red

Just to be clear, the semi-gloss black and Blitz Black are two different paints. The Blitz is a flatter black. The semi-gloss is the preferred paint. Hope this helps. Mike

Hey Mark I think I can help you on this one.
All 40 dashes were semi-gloss black, seat frames were black, gas, oil and radiator cap were cadmium plated ( looks alittle like chrome ) all seat cushions were also black. I have a 1953 40T that I have been working on for 5yrs. and have researched most of these areas. Any other questions let me know.
Matt B.
