Thanks for looking in gentlemen.

Joel: I have been diging, for info regarding colors. From what I have been able to find, it apears that Ford offered, several colors, in the first few years, then found a new, cheaper way of painting, which, at the time, could only be done in black, so for a number of years, black was the only color available. At a later stage several colors were once more offered.
I havent been able to dig up information, whether they had a shiny finish or more to the dull side.
My choice of colors was, most likely, not available in 1911, but I like the color combo and have chosen to keep it on the shiny side, though not too shiny.

Thanks Damian. Glad to be back working on this one.

Gabriel: It's quite simple actually. First parts are primed in flatt black, then a layers of acrillycs are added. I made a mix of beige and yellow. The acriyllics are brush painted and deliberately painted with visible brushstrokes. Not only brushstrokes, but the black primer need to be visible as well, more or less in stripes. when the acryllics were dry I wasn't to happy with the amount of black stripes, so I aded a few more black stripes. I used burnt sienna oil.
The oil paint is semi transparent, so the acryllic layer and primer will be partly visible. The primer and acryllics will help create the grain. Don't be to worried about brushstrokes, when adding the oil, it will only help creating the wood grain.
When adding the oil paint, you can create different hues, by varying the thickness of the oil paint.
What acryllics and oil's to use really depends on what type of wood you need to replicate.

A few weeks ago, I received a package, from ICM customer service. Unfortunately it did not contain replacement parts, for my Ford T, instead there was a canopy, for an airplane model. Quite far, from headlight brackets, I would say. Another email, to Valeriia, in Ukraine, who promised to send the correct sprue. As promised, another parcel was send, which I received late last week.
So now I have the "Old" sprue and the replacement sprue, which gives me the oppertunity to experiment, with various brass effects.
