OK, we all do it maybe just don't admit it. While seated behind my car during judging I overheard the judge mention the rust on my exhaust clamps. This will be one of the things I suspect will be noted on the scoring sheet I requested and I look forward to all of their feedback and opportunity to make improvements. Knowing this could possibly be a noted observation what would be the correct finish for the clamps and hangers (phosphate & oil?)? This is for my Dearborn, December 71 Mach 1. Thank you

Is this a restored or unrestored car? On a restored car, no rust would be expected. Best thing to do with natural steel parts is blast/tumble them and then coat with a rust preventative like Boeshield.

It is a restored car. From your comments then it would be natural finish? Thank you.

Correct. Metal can be a bit brighter in turns/bends since the metal was stretched
