Hi guys, I am pressuming everything was zinc plated Silver, ie bolts, hydro brake lines, and masterhead cylinders,
And the undercarage Hydro line bash plate was gold plated..

I've never seen a `gold plated' hydro bash plate on an original car... they were all zinc silver.:wink:
Anyway back then anything that looked gold, was usually cadmium plated, not zinc.
Cad plating has pretty much gone now due to OHS concerns (cadmium is a poison).
