I started a list of items that need yellow zinc for the 69. Am I missing anything? Thank you, Joe
power brake booster
caliper mounts
smog check valves
master cyl lid
jack mast
bracket for valve below master cyl
diverter valve?
-
Rear seat belt retainer bolts that mount under the rear seat.
I think the jack mast can be with and without yellow zinc plating.

The front inboard bolts are yellow. Outside one are chrome. At least that's the way they were on my car. thanks... Joe

I'll look at some of those. Not an r/s. Forgot about t/s light & lic light. Brake line retainer I will examine. My latch was a combo of paint & spatter..Thank you, Joe

I assume you're talking about 69? I just checked both my 67's and the front seatbelt bolts where chrome....one for the lap belt and one for retractor. I figured being they were visible is why they were chrome. Maybe 69 it was different?
Pretty much other items mentioned already sounds accurate. Drum brake components come to mind but I'm not sure which parts, if any.

Yes, the anchor pin washer is Zinc Dichromate, it is the funky spacer with the ears. (For lack of a better description)

Joe,
I cannot remember if your car is a 4 speed. If it is, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd, 4th levers on a Muncie are yellow zinc.
Nothing on the sway bar link is yellow zinc.

It is very common practice to restore the 69 camaro orignal end link spacers to the zinc dichromate finish as it was originally.

The radiator petcock is brass and not yellow zinc plated. Add to the list aluminum intake manifold carb mounting studs.

The Nut is brass, but the stem, barrel & wing nut are steel.
