I believe the car has a black undercarriage and the body color that is visible is overspray as it would have been originally.
Thats a lot of overspray.

I suspect the fasteners are not original.
MCA Rules:
Fan Shroud: Required on all HiPo and A/C. Rubber pad stapled to battery tray side of shroud. Flat tip shroud attaching screws.

MCA Rules
B. Undercarriage: Undercoated Cars: Everything must be covered except drive shaft, transmission, rear-end housing, exhaust pipes, mufflers, springs and plates. Gas tank must be fully undercoated or have overspray around leading front edge and two sides. Must show some evidence of overspray. Convertible plate must be undercoated. Non-Undercoated Cars: Undercarriage primer - red oxide, dark slop gray or black with some body color fading to tunnel and semi-gloss black pinch weld paint overspray (primer paint drips should be visible). Convertible plate, black or natural.
caspian65, can you explain why the undercarriage of your car is painted body color?

What headlamps do you have on the car? Some of the after market headlamps may require a relay.

Has anybody seen a Hipo style fan blade with Schwitzer part number 911960 SC & date code without a Ford trademark stamp?

Quote from CharlesTurner
So is that what you think the "SC" stands for?
Yeah, seems logical. You have anything better?
Quote from round2KBob Mannel might know
See Bob's book page F-6

Are you sure you don't have the head gaskets on backwards? You should see a square tab protruding on the front of the engine between the cylinder head & mounting surface of the block near the exhaust manifold. If the tabs are on the rear of the engine thay are on backwards & will not allow coolant flow.

Some blades I have seen have natural aluminum blades, most are completely painted black. What is deemed correct/are both correct/did they differ by plant/year? I believe the blade was made by Schwitzer Corp.
