Correct color on parts for restoration

[Jerry]

I am currently restoring a 70 1/2 Z28 Camaro. I need information on the factory correct color of the door latch and striker, deck lid latch and striker and hood pin and spring. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I'll try and Email you pictures tomorrow.......
1)Door Latch and Three screws were painted with door, however because latch mechanism was coated with assy light grease, much of the paint washed off or "fell off" easily.
2)Deck Lid latch and striker were clear(silver)ZINC plated, but after painting much of the zinc was covered .......
3)Hood Pin was Mang Phosphated from fastener mfg.....wheras the stamped metal Bracket it fastens too was Zinc Phosphated. MANY people use the chemicals available from PALMETTO Ent...to do this yourself. The Hood Pin "Spring" appears to be painted BLACK......on many cars......but I also think BLACK OXIDE would "look" good........
