I've got the motor out of my '65 Mustang and I'm starting to clean and paint the engine compartment, but I'm not sure if the 6 bolts that secure the shock tower covers should be painted over with the rest of the compartment, or removed, cleaned and reinstalled "raw," i.e., no paint. My suspicion is that these bolts were in place at the factory before the engine bay was painted and that they received the same paint as the rest of the compartment. But, I've been wrong before (understatement). It's a San Jose car with a February 1965 build date. Thanks, Ron
