Second version is via direct ink stamping on cable, which is stamped several times along the cable. This is from one of my own cars (1 owner).

Tom,
I don't have many pics of 70's, most are 71's. However, there are not allot of differences other than the intake/carb combo.
This one is pretty darn accurate
Is that race hemi orange? It appears brighter than the other 340s on the bottom the page.

Working on my 70 Duster and I'd like to make sure I have all the right bits and pieces.Anybody got any good shots?
Another major detail that is often over looked pertains to the painted overspray patterns on the exhaust manifolds. These items were painted on the engine. More times than not, the restorer does not correctly calculate the pattern that should result from having these bolted into place. Notice a few of the examples that have been posted here. The bottom of the collector on the exhaust manifold is bare while the immediate background and surrounding area (on the engine block) is completely covered with paint. That particular spray pattern would be impossible if the manifold was painted on the engine. Also take note of the overspray that is evident where the manifold bolts onto the engine. You will see a transparent amount of overspray but the engine will have full heavy paint coverage. If you are going to copy an assembly line job, think through the logic of how the “physics” actual work. It is extremely evident when the process has not been thought through properly and the parts actually clash with each other.
If the manifolds were painted on the engine…. paint them on the engine! Why perform a contrasting (noticeable) two step process?

Actually Dave, the easiest way to get the absolute perfect factory paint is to know exactly what was on the engine during the factory paint process. Next, don't paint the engine until the morning after a really good night drinking and you have an incredible hang over. Now, just before you start painting, get in a really big fight with your wife, now you’re ready for a perfect shoddy factory paint job.

Worker  Boss  If you are painting in the afternoon, make sure you tip the bottle during break or lunch!(it's behind the radio or TV)
