Restoration / 1969 Z28 jack

« on: June 01, 2017, 11:23:08 PM »

Was the 1969 Z28 jack ratchet assembly tower originally silver or anodized gold?  I have seen them both ways.  Which is correct, or are both correct depending upon production plant, date, etc.?  Is there a particular paint I should use to replicate either or both of these colors?  Thanks for your help.

Restoration / 1969 Z28 spare wheel

« on: June 01, 2017, 11:16:19 PM »

I have a question.  What color was the back side of an original 1969 Z28 spare wheel?  I have seen several pictures of the trunk compartments of Z28's and the backs of some spares are painted black, some gray, etc.  My jack base, hook, and ratchet are all dove gray.  Was the spare (if gray) the same color as the jack components?  Darker, lighter?  What is the correct color of the back side of the spare wheel from the factory?  Thanks in advance for your help.
