67 chassis markings, do I have them all?

[Chris E.]

Getting REALLY close to dropping the body on the car (see the thread https://www.forums.ncrs.org/showthre...71156&uid=3126).

Wondering if this list of chassis marks is complete or not.

Standing here in MN, chalk and paint at the ready.

The number before each item references the page in the TIM/JG where it is listed.

124 Blue and/or yellow on rag joint
125 Yellow paint on steering box
125 Blue paint on pitman arm
126 Staples for A-arm dust shields and the shields themselves are painted black because of the blackout process
134 Black mitted finish on front stabilizer bar
134 Orange paint on both front spindles
136 Starter front plate is natural
138 Paint the bolts for the bellhousing inspection cover orange
140 Shim marks in vertical lines
141 Mitted black finish on mufflers
145 Gas tank straps are semi-gloss black, while bolts and nuts are zinc
??? Calipers had white dabs of paint on them
??? Driveshaft has green and orange stripes on it

125 - only if the box has a natural finish.
138 - double check the bolt (cap screw) finish.

I believe that the mitting mentioned in 141 & 134 have been de-bunked.

Right, Brian.
That is a term, not the process.
Just spray them Flat Black (Blackout).

So............spray the mufflers flat black and DON'T paint the spindles orange? My original spindle was painted orange to some degree, so I'd like to replicate that.

Good point Mike, the 1/4" screws would only be orange if the inspection cover, lower bell housing showed evidence of being covered in orange. This is very variable from full coverage to nothing. The back of the oil pan should also reflect same coverage as this area to look realistic.
