They sure don't look plated to me - does any one know their correct finish? also the correct finish/color for the plate that the rear shocks attach to? Thanks!

And unless I'm mistaken, the shock mount plates were unfinished also. Wait a few mins and let Barry W. or some of the other guys that know for sure chime in. 65 Barracuda 70 Challenger

Hope this helps. 6854267-Picture001.jpg (65 downloads) ....there is nothing like driving my 1968 Hemi Dart around town and having people looking at you like you're nuts!!

I'm sure i'll have a ton more questions the further i get into my project here.
