The Canadians changed colour officially when the British did in June 1944.
Actual dates must have varied depending on paint supplies. The argument on whether or not vehicles were still still painted brown at the time of D Day has been discussed many times but the offical instruction certainly states not to repaint vehicles untill required.

Yes, two long bolts go right through.

And presumably the bell housing is threaded?

Your not considering the idea that Henry used a couple of loose nuts in there, are you?

Put the starter motor back on yesterday after considerable effort. Still amazed by how small the bolts are holding it to the bell housing and how relatively little thread holds the starter motor on.
The company I took it to could find no problem but obviously there must have been something preventing a good contact so it has now had a good clean.
