70 Firebird Engine Bracket Finishes
In the attached pic from the 70 assembly manual, can anyone confirm the finishes on the 5 different brackets I have highlighted in yellow? Right now I have them all painted black, but it has been so long on this project, and I did not do a good job documenting the original finishes. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All are chassis black, which is like a 60% sheen.

My 2$ worth,...gloss of 60-75%. Better a bit too shiny than a bit too flat, IMHO.

Yup, semi-gloss. One advantaged of gloss is it's easier to keep clean.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
