Had my paint guy shoot the LCAs. It's not a concourse car but I'm having fun....

it will have that 70's custom look

I hope it's only my monitor that's makes them look like 24K Gold

lol,

yes its a bit bright but hoping for some road fade....

looks cool! but not close....

tried to use this pic..

Krylon battery protector isn't bad either, dries hard, this is what I have used in the past.

That looks great.. Hey do you know the Croces of Buffalo? Good friends of mine. They are in the restaurant business...

NOS lower control arm.

Snoopy,

If you squint your eyes real hard and wear sunglasses mine look NOS.. .Anyway let's hope it looks good when I'm done. Thanks for the pics...

Before you reinstall them, try fitting the torsion bars back in. The bars are a tight fit even without paint..

BTW Cosmoline is still avaialble...

started re-assembly.. Looking better in the car...

Here is another option this is a spray greese that dries hard. It kind of simulates the dipping process the factory used back in the day.

I actually dip mine in REAL COSMOLINE, then they look exactly like they should with darker run streaks which you can't replicate no matter what kind of "paint" you use. Dipping also provides 100% coverage which you also can't do with any other spray coating. I am actually thinking about offering this as a specialty service if anyone is interested.

Looks good Dirk.

Did you paint the color code on the "rocker" before dipping? Can't tell from the pic.

I see they actually make a aresol can of cosmoline as well.... look the same?

Another option...Oops...all ready mentioned..

Real cosmoline...I do all mine this way...Gets expensive to buy 5 gallons if you're only doing one set, but I've now done dozens of them to date...I like to assemble them with bushings etc..BEFORE dipping so you don't have to handle them as much...
