All Austin de-luxe models from 20hp to 7hp followed the same rules in 1933.
De-luxe paintwork was available as "Black top" in which case the lower part of the body, the bonnet top and the window reveals were painted in a contrasting colour.
The only time a black bonnet top was used was with an all black de-luxe.
from p16 of the June 1933 catalogue.
