I think you have to stay true to your marque, because I think different plants did different things.

The Novas upper shafts are believed to have come black, because the control arm was painted as an assy sans ball joint. The large upper bushing washers are also supposed to be black on Novas. This per Wayne Bushey and the '70 L78 Giveaway car resto project.

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY;

You are correct looks like they were dipped as one assembly.

Rob,
Just about every 4:10 CRW coded rear I have seen has had a yellow paint 'blotch' on the top of the nose area of the center section, a yellow paint dab marking the location of the vent tube, a blue paint stripe near the right side shock mount (under the black paint) and an "X" on the rear end cover to name a few. Dennis C. and Dean R. both have good photos of their cars showing these same markings. I don't recall seeing any numbers written on them. By the way, your picture did not show up.
Rick
