Were the tower clamps used on 61-62 radiator hoses stainless?

Thanks,

I think I can answer your question but need a part number to be sure.

Thank you, David. Now that I'm looking at those I have, maybe they're just natural steel. Anyhow, part number for the lower hose clamps is 274765 and for the top 9411656. Thanks!
