pfrederi 17,197 #1 Posted March 25, 2012 My new 310-8 21-10k801 Serial 13167 (makes it an 1985 I think) has an all red hood. I have sanded and scratched an it is only red. Most all the pictures of that vintage show the black band on the front. I am pretty sure the paint job on mine is original. (It was not one of WHs best moments. No primer and it peeled off in several areas leading to surface rust. Based on my examination and the decals It looks all red to me. I know 310-8 were a built to price point model (small tires and a cheesy electrical system)_ did they save even more with a unicolor paint job? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,028 #2 Posted March 25, 2012 I have seen the 308 and the 310 with the all red hood, I've heard and this is as I said hear say, that the all red models where sold at the box stores, like home depot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 991 #3 Posted March 25, 2012 maybe in the states thats true but i bought my 308 redhood from my local dealer,i think it was to keep the costs down,painting the black on the hood would have been an extra step,and my 308 is bare bones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
