Jerry,
Regarding clips, here is info. from my original '65.

I'm not sure about the fuel line clips because all original finish is gone. The brake line clips that are riveted to the frame are green zinc chromate. Not sure about the clip that bolts the cross over line to the rear frame member as finish is also gone.

Hope that this helps a little. Good luck with your '65.

Regards,
Gene

Jerry:

I don't remember where I got my information, but I restored my 1965 with cad plated fuel line clips, and black phosphate bolts. I verified everything I did, from multiple sources, so I'm gonna say that its about 95% certain.
As far as the brake line clips that Gene mentioned. They are not rivetted, but rather snapped into place with a spring steel retainer, integral with the clip. I do remember that these clips are very expensive.

Jerry,

Rear suspension crossover line clips were also "green zinc"
Most vendors carry them.....Long Island, Paragon etc..
