Default Day 2 Lakewood Traction Bars

OK,

I finally found a great pair of original day 2 traction bars
with the long backs for that day-2 look I'm after for another
project. I have two fast questions and hope someone can
help. What is the correct yellow color? These were painted
red way-back-when. Where can I get original style J-bolts
and nuts? Mine are missing. Are they still available?
Anybody got an old set of J-bolts just lying around and in
dire need of a home?

Steve

I had the J bolts made at a heavy truck suspension shop and they were much cheaper and better materials than summit etc.
