I am in the process of doing a sort-of "correct" restoration on my 67. (not original paint, but as close to stock as possible)
Everything is going to get blasted and refinished eventually, and I would like to get as much correct as I can. Painted vs. unfinished vs. some other paint.
Right now here is what I am working on-
Tailgate-
Tailgate latch/surround/handle-
License plate mount/spring assembly-
tailgate supports- were these supposed to be raw? maybe zinc?
Under dash-
Clutch/brake/bracket-
Clutch/brake/pedals-
Accelerator pedal bracket-
Heater box (metal part)-
E-brake bracket assembly-
My license plate mount is Wimbledon White, and every one that I have seen is painted body color. Same with the tailgate latch. It is throwing me off.
My 77 has NO paint on the pedal bracket assembly, it is getting rusty, but the pedals appear to be painted brownish black (chassis paint maybe).
Thanks in advance-
