#1 A question of finish?

Post by richard btype » Sun Nov 02, 2025 9:09 am

I'm looking to refinish the torsion bars and the front brake disc shields from a 1965 4.2.

Would like to know whether they were black (torsion bars) and if so painted or chemical engineering black?

With the disc shields - painted black or cadmium plated?

Thx in advance...
