I receieved this petcock from a retired Chrysler assemblyline worker. I have checked a few survivors and noted the bare petcocks as opposed to black painted ones you so often see in restorations. I would like to know if there are any folks out there with survivors they can reference to see if my findings are consistant with their cars. It seems to me it would be pretty difficult to accurately restore this piece with proper finishes as pictured.



My brother has liberated those petcocks by the dozens when he worked at Lynch Road and Hamtramack Assembly in the late 60 throught the 80's and there was no finish on them.
