1972 'Cuda restoration questions - 12/06/10 11:05 PM

A friend is restoring a TB3 1972 'Cuda.
He is trying to determine the correct color for the steering control gear box and the master cylinder and lid.
July 1972 build date if that matters.

Thanks.

Is it power steering or manual?
Is it power brakes or manual?

Steering box should be natural. The booster(if it is the banded style) should be plated zinc dichromate. The master is bare. I've heard conflicting statements about the master lids. Some say they were plated just like the booster...others say they were natural. Mine was completely covered with rust so I think it might have been natural. I think I'm going the plated route though.
