Decided it was a good time to do some prep work on the carbs. They had been painted with Eastwood carburetor paint for over 20 years and actually looked OK, but decided they needed to be finished correctly. Stripped the paint and now they're down to bare
 So, started looking for pics of IDAs, and found many that looked like zinc with no passivation, some were a deep golden dichromate, and some were a lighter shade. Does anyone know how these would look as new from the late 60s, early 70s? Dan |
