I am at the stage where it is time to re-paint the chassis components. I need help with finding the correct colors for each part.

1 - Frame = gloss black?

2 - Coil springs = gloss black?

3 - Rear end and springs = gloss black?

4 - Hog head (differential) = ??? (I have seen orange on someones '53 resto .. correct?)

5 - There is a brass block on the rear end which divides the brake line for each rear wheel = painted over or brass color?

6 - Brake backer plates = ???

7 - Brake drums = ???

8 - Wheel studs = bare metal?

9 - Gas and brake lines = bare metal ... stainless are considered ok? ... as in no point deductions at a judging meet?

10 - Front end parts (tie rods etc) = bare metal?

11 - Control arms = gloss black?

12 - Spindles = gloss black?

13 - Splash guards under engine = ???

14 - Sway bar = ???

15 - Shocks = ???

16 - Bolts holding everything on chassis from front end to shock mounts - painted or bare metal?

... that's about all I can think of at the moment ... any help is appreciated.

... thanks ...
