blackout on drums, front calipers and steering box
« on: June 30, 2012, 11:57:31 PM »
Would a 68 1/2 GT with the steel styled wheels have had the rear drums and front calipers blacked out ?

Would the top of the steering box also get the black out brushed on top of it ?

Thanks

HAve seen some that appear to have been blacked out - at this point I would not deduct for either at a show.

As for calipers and drums being blacked out on styled steel wheels in 68 I've not found any cars from San Jose where black was visible.
