This is a great picture of what things look like bare, I’ve had this discussion w Ole pinion head for years now about the rears and how they were painted as well as w a few other.
I’ve always said the cast center section needed to be darker cast, tubes natural steel is tough to replicate and welds should have heat weld marks as I posted on yenko and another person posted a great example of that w air brush work also on yenko. This picture is ONe example I’m sure they differed.
I posted the assembly manual version of the painting process on yenko as well I’ll see if I can find it in. Files again but not everything was actually done per assembly manuals.
Notice the hardware in the upper control arm in that picture as well appears to be painted black. Assembly manual also suggests it woukd have been black from the way I interpretation it.
