Fiberglass engine shroud
I was cleaning out the engine and noticed what looked like a small cracked/broken section of the shroud. After cleaningthe area out, it seems that the shroud is fiberglass that has been painted black. Was this stock on 1970 911T's?

All shrouds are fiberglass. The color is from using tinted resin. Some may have been painted in addition.

I do belive that a black shroud is correct for a 1970T. My 69T motor has a black shroud and I know the yellow shrouds started in 72.
