Bollen (last name or first?):
Not sure the year of your 6, but I will respond based on the
research I did for my '70 TR6:

Bracket is not painted, polished metal and motor is aluminum painted
(I have seen both black and aluminum, I used aluminum because it goes
better with the Laurel Green paint I used)

Same colour as your body

Black: matte
Any corrections from the list is welcomed. I also recall someone having
a list
of TR6 paint specifications for parts. Not sure if this was on someone's
web
site or possible it has been added to the VTR site (haven't visited it
in a
while). If you have any other parts or areas you'd like clarification,
please ask
(a commom mistake is that the bonnet support bar should be painted
black
(semigloss) while the holding mount when the bar is down should be
painted the
colour of the car).
Hope this helps.
