OVERULD - the exhaust manifold shroud on the driver's side manifold is indeed painted black. The original one was black on the inside and after doing some research it seems that 99% of 1970 Ram Air III shrouds were black from the factory. Ram Air IV shrouds seem to be mostly siver cad plated.

Dr. Doug - the shift linkage is all correct and original to the car. I am posting up a picture of the linkage that runs to the swivel on the frame to actuate the steering column lock.

The engine color is my own custom-mixed DuPont acrylic enamel. The Pontiac engine color in the spray cans just doesn't seem to have enough green in them as the original engine color did.....so I developed my own formula. I can give you the DuPont formula if you'd like it.
