They definitely had screws on the bottom of deluxe door panels. I believe they were a countersunk style with a integrated washer and the finish was black oxide, but not positive.

I have always seen silver with countersunk washer . With that said I always wondered why I hadn't seen any that were black which to me would have made more sense. Bob

Seems the typical for that plant was the zinc/cad plated screws with intergrated screws as mentioned and shown below (original Dearborn example)




At the same time (at other plants) there seems to be something else going on with the screw finish on some cars - Just to confuse the issue for others  :D
