Took about a year to get my $35.00 swap meet find Ground Grabbers, stripped of many layers of black and red paint to base metal, cleaned up, dressed very minor burrs and sent to the platers for a quick zinc DiChromate plate job and installed. No sandblasting! Only Chem cleaning. There was an indication they were plated at some time during manufacturing. Additionally When touring a local Speed shop in Seattle (Relocated in Monroe Wa) Jim Greens performance Center. There is a Neat vintage photo of the store-counter front and on the wall are ground grabbers and I asked Jim Green if he rememberd selling them and he commented they were a "GOLDEN" color. This also prompted me to proceed with the plating of the bars.
