Finish on msc items

[Steve L.]

-Plastic parking brake pully nut Lockwasher and nut. Looks like black phosphate.
-Equalizer part # 625647 this is the U shaped piece the wire slides on. From the lack of corrosion, I suspect zinc
-Nut for above equalizer

-Lock nuts for cable assy for lap belt safety wire 9422299
Doesn't look like there is a replacement for this nut. The 1968 nut, sold by vendors, is way to thin. I suspect zinc.

-Travel limit rubber bumper front vulanized steel plate,the plate itself.It looks like reminants of zinc.
-Bolt, nut and washer for above. Looks like reminants of black phosphate.

-travel limit rubber bumper rear attached stud and nut. Guess as black phoshate for both

-Fuel tank removable X member attachment bolt,nut and washer. Guess as black phosphate for all.

-Brake caliper to caliper mount bolts front and rear, Guess as natural.

So far my guestimates hit rate has been poor.

This is for a 73

Steve, the only ones that you have wrong are the gas tank straps nuts and washers they are zinc and the bolt is blk phos. and the calipers bolts are blk. phosphate

Re: Finish on msc items

Thanks for the quick response. But just to claify, there is the x member that supports the gas tank. This x-member bolts onto the frame with bolt, lockwasher and nut. I think this is what you are referring to.

There is also the tank straps. These are the thin metal straps that secure the gas tank. Ther is only a long bolt that goes through this strap. What is the finish on the bolt. I suspect it's black phosphate.

Steve, I was refering to the tank support ,not the strap, sorry, the strap bolts I have seen zinc,and blk phosphate.

There was a posting a few months ago on a 300mile 72 ZR1 car, and the was quite a few undercarriage pic.s showing a lot of the original nuts and bolt finishes, see if you can find it, if not let me know.
