Factory finish on door lock knobs & cowl screws? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to replace a couple parts on my '70.

What color door lock knobs (stems) would it have most likely come with? Black and chrome seem to be the most common.

On the Phillips screws that hold down the cowl, would they have been zinc (possibly stainless?) or black painted steel?

Thanks!

Knobs were black. The exposed cowl screws were stainless. Those covered by the hood seal were black phosphate.
