I'm looking to restore my ignition coil bracket
and hardware. Would anyone know what is the correct factory plating on it and the hardware? I've been told by some it maybe a dull zinc plating or possibly a galvanized finish on the bracket--any experts out there? Also need proper finish on the mounting bolts. This is what I have to start with (see photo). Thanks in advance--- Sal

IMO, they were made from galvanized sheet stock like the brake backing plates. It is acceptable, but not "correct" ? to plate in clear cad or zinc.

Thanks for your comments guys--- that coil
bracket above looks like hot dipped galvanized. Does anyone on sYc know of a shop that does this correct finish? Thanks for your help. Sal

"bracket above looks like hot dipped galvanized."
I agree - that is hot dipped zinc. |
