To the best of my knowledge they were all Cadmium or Zinc plated. I think Eastwood has a product that is the correct color but I don't know about it's durability....

Re: door stricker color

I take it that he means door striker, not sticker.

Re: door stricker color

Mine have always been what I would call black phosphate. The bolts are too. For some reason they don't look like it in the picture.

Here's a blurry screen-save picture from the video made of that 1970 C-10
with 80 miles on it that was for sale a couple of years ago . . . dark with natural bolts.
