Default Correct paint for 67 Camaro jack assembly

I just got a bug in my butt to restore my jack assembly for my 67 Camaro. What are the correct colors for the mast, ratchet and base, duckbill, and tire iron?

Paint brands and color names would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

No one has any input on this?

I have read that the ratchet and base should be a grey color, but mine appears to have been originally painted black.

I believe grey is the correct color for the base. This is a match with Krylon smoke grey or battleship grey. But if yours appears to have been black originally I would probably keep it that color. I don't really think it matters for the base, I have seen both black and grey. The ratchet I believe is black, the mast natural steel color and tire iron is black. Hope this helps!!

The GM jack masts that resemble square steel tubing are actually plated. Steve Gregori offers a plating service on these for $45:
