I am looking for a corect under hood restoration. I would like some infor on what color to paint the frame, sprngs, control arms, sway bar, PS gear box, firewall, wiper motor, heater box and ect. If you know a web site that wold be great. This is original only. Thanks.

I've had this info for a while but believe it to be correct:

frame and upper/lower control arms and upper shafts-semigloss black
front coil springs-gloss black or natural(better detail contrast)
firewall, inner fenders, radiator support-semigloss black
radiator and fan-gloss black
fan clutch-natural aluminum
radiator shroud-natural black plastic or gloss black
steering box-natural cast iron gray
steering linkage-natural steel
front sway bar-natural cast iron gray
heater or AC housing-semigloss black
hood hinges, latch, catch and springs- gray phosphate plated
brackets and steel pulleys-semi gloss or gloss black(gloss gives more detail contrast)
cast iron pulleys- natural cast iron
master cylinder- natural cast iron(some use gloss black)
brake booster-gold cadmium plated(master cylinder lid also)
windshield wiper motor-gloss black
alternator- natural aluminum
power steering pump-gloss black
AC compressor-semigloss black
steering column shaft-natural steel
horns- gloss black
coil- gloss black
voltage regulator-gloss black
distributor- natural aluminum with gloss black cap
fuel and brake lines-natural steel

Now there is a reply!

Hi Bob,

Thanks for the info. Don't think my Camaro will be ready for the MBA meet but maybe I'll cruise up in my Corvette.
