I had 2 sets of old stops and did not note any yellow paint when I was reviewing for possible use.

I have a set of NOS ones somewhere.  If i get a chance I will dig them out and look for the paint stripe.

OK, I have two sets NOS.   All have the number 402410 cast in.
One set the yellow stripe is a bit wider than the other, but other than that, no difference.

Do you want pics?

Has to be what he is talking about. I'm re-using my OE's. As much as I'd like to use a little more of the inspection paint I bought, did not find any yellow paint on mine. Mine is an April 68, maybe different?

Good point.
Also, nobody likes a dumb one either.... ;D

wish I could contribute to the topic, but mine are coated with undercoating.

Trying, but apparently even after dumbing the pics down twice, file is still too large.

Gary I wonder if yours are original, maybe they are assembly line correct with the extra number cast in the side?

When I rebuilt my front end, I *believed* these bump stops were factory original, thus I left them in place (even with a few cracks)...

Gary's are what I've noted as assembly line correct. Later service replacements did not have the part # embossed but not sure when that changed. As stated earlier I have not noted any yellow paint on my originals or some service replacements I had. Did not note any on Skip's 69 Orange Z/28 Survivor when we had it lifted and reviewed and looked for any paint markings, etc.
This is a picture of one of our originals, 1968 01B Z/28

I would agree.  I believe the ones I posted are NOS over the counter, but the ones on Gary's car are assembly line correct originals.
