Traction bars

What color should I paint these homemade Jobs I found on CList? There going on a Burnished Brown 69 Z/28.

If you are going to go for a 70's look, I would imagine yellow or white.

I am pretty sure they are not homemade. There were lots and lots of traction bars on the market and some were very short lived. I have a set identical to yours. Probably made by &quot;SEGAL&quot; which was another speed company/Jobber that went out of business many years ago. Segal was the owners last name, I can't remember his first but he was part of SEMA back in the day. I have one of their catalogs buried somewhere. Whitetop I think has copies of Segal Traction bar ads somewhere.

Thanks , I like to see that ad Tommy.

Maybe there not. I know one of the shock mounts have been moved to fit 68 and 69 staggered shock application.

Thanks Mike

This is the only pic I could find of them so I cropped it from a larger pic. They were kinda burnt orange color when I pulled them from a 68 Nova I was parting out several years ago.

Satin black if you want to be stealthy. If you want to show them off then yellow or maybe Chevy Orange to match the engine. Heck, you could chrome them!

The welds are probably as bad on these as they are on yours.
