68 rr is the sway bar and brackets natural steel or black thanks

I done my 69 with cast gray

I did mine with Eastwoods spray gray.. It stands out a little. You can see it in my pic just past the black PS jug on the floor

Grey Zink Phosphate coating would be the closest I know of. Eastwood sells it also.

Try Eastwood zinc phosphate on the sway bar and gloss black on the brackets. Bolts, nuts and washers are black phosphate.

I asked this very question to one of the premier restorers known.....you know him but I won't name him,
'68....both swaybar and brackets were black.
'70 would be bare metal brackets and black sway bar..can't remember what the '69's were,I don't have one........al

From a 1968 - 1970 Plymouth B Body reference Manual. "The sway bar was dipped in black paint."
"1968 - 1970 The Sway bars saddle brackets are stamped steel painted black." They have a semi-gloss black finish. The nuts and bolts are phosphate plated.

If that's the "Reference Manual" by Paul Herd, that book is full of errors & erroneous info. But I think the swaybars were dipped in paint similar to the way torsion bars were. I honestly don't recall the swaybars being plated when these cars were new, and none of my original cars (St.Louis, Hamtramck, Los Angeles) were plated; they were dark with black paint flaking off of them.

It is not from the Paul Herd book.
