I note that a museum-display photograph shows said vehicle with black wheel hubs while drawings of battlefield vehicles show green hubs. For wartime which is correct? I'm doing this for the Korean War.

hi when they left the factory they along with the following items were painted semi gloss black , wheel hubs . headlights , horn , and chassis it was up to the officers to issue the orders for them to be painted over . Korean war I would say ex WW2 stock should be painted Russian green , but I have seen photos of them still semi gloss black cheers ian see my posting about Gaz file on face book , I am loading over 70 + photos on the BA 64 including plans and drawings .
