'59 brake & clutch pedal finish

[Bob S.]

I am having my brake and clutch pedal assembly on my '59 powder coated but can't tell if it was originally gloss or semi-gloss black. I am assuming semi-gloss but wanted to be sure.
Advice.

Bob,

Attached is a Word document listing many components and the assumed correct finishes. I take no credit for this list and wish that I could recall and attribute the sources from whom it was compiled. Also note that it is not gospel, but probably a pretty good guess.

Have fun!

Regards,
Mike

Thanks Mike. That is just what I was looking for.

Bob, I would add...

...these clutch/brake pedal asys were dip painted with paint coverage only about the lower (visible) portion of the two pedal arms - maybe 2-3rds of the assembly. Painting the entire asy will not duplicate factory paint. Best, Dennis

The list will be very helpful but I did not see any mention of the headlight cup (the one the bulb fits into). The ones I have are undamaged but have some rust and other corrosion. What finish should they have?

Thanks, Joseph Rock
