What color were the "top Fender bolts" off the assembly line? Were they the silver or the gold looking bolt? also how about the Hood Latch assembly to the hood???
I have seen 1970's painted body color. It just depends on what assembly plant was the car built at....and how did they paint/assemble it.
My 71 Kansas City were Gold Cad ... not sure about hood latch .. but I left ALL my bolts gold cad when I put it back together after paint.
