What finish on upper shock mount brackets on 68 GT500
« on: February 08, 2020, 02:48:38 PM »
Was wondering on what finish on the upper shock mounting brackets for 68 GT500? Looked through pictures and looks to be black, I know usually non Shelby are a phosphate  color. Thoughts?

They were painted black because of the reinforcing washers welded on them.

That would depend on where the non-Shelby was built ;)
