It should look like bare steel with welded ends showing the heat lines on both sides of the weld from heat transfer. It will be very difficult to find a pit free shaft.

Thanks for the replies.

On finding an absolutely pit free shaft, to leave bare and then put the heat marks...plus the thin coat of oil...

Im really not going that far! It would rust when I drive it!!!

I just want a nice, original, complete car...bare parts will get painted to mimic a bare surface.
