Topic: Shock paint daubs

[Skyway65]

Jeff- 
Here is a photo of the original shock.  Luckily the numbers weren't rusted away like the lower half is.  The engineering number is "C5ZF-18080-A3"  with a date code of "Y  4MC."  Does anyone have a similar original with the paint daubs intact?  TIA--Gary

I have several NOS shocks and this is a correct line Front C7ZF-E small block Autolite shock dated first week Sept 1966.
One shock has a Blue paint mark and the other has nothing. Hope this is helpful for you just stumbled onto the thread.
