The original A arm bolts were very pitted. Where we send parts out to be phosphated, it's 65.00 for a bolt, or a bucket of bolts. We have a 69 camaro in here also, whose owner could care less if he has cad bolts or not. So we used his, waited until we had a half bucket of hardware, and changed out the bolts.
The alt plugin on the original harness, and both of my deuces are the same as pictured.

That's the 'safety' version, take a file to it.

Once you slice a groove in your forearm from the originals, you know why they make them this way now.

<font color="blue"> It's alive </font> !!!! Word from up north is that at 1200 local (IA) the Deuce came to life again sucking the sweet agrarian air in thru her 4 bbl. Didn't ask if she saw her shadow or not .

Schoney, What coating or Paint are you using say on front sway bar and upper control arm cross shaft, versus the color or contrast on the steering center link, ect, etc.

Can you share this info or rather not ????

I really appreciate your detail and workmanship.

Thanks,
