Easy one I hope.
This is for a 6 although exists on -4 as well.
Should it be yellow zinc…….also have seen painted black? I have soaked these and paint came off.
Thanks

Neither of my 73’ /4 were black though I have seen black parts. I can’t recall if it was yelllow chromate or not. Seems to have a yellowish area toward center.

If you’re going for concours perfection you’ll have to do more digging to see what they did at Porsche. Attached Image

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Ugh - morning caffeine hasn’t kicked in.

The parts you’ve posted aren’t the steering column bearing clamp that I posted. Note the rounded closed in ends on the part I mistakenly posted.

Hmm. Now I am baffled. Are those U-clamps perhaps for 911 front anti-roll bar? [edit] nope - looking those up in PET, they are different than parts originally posted.

Losing my mind . . .

Edit: more looking through PET shows late model 911 rear anti-roll bar u-shape clamps similar (but not exactly the same) as was originally posted.

Sure looks like 911 front aluminum cross member bar clamps.

They look like rear sway bar bushing clamps.
I just pulled a pair and can compare to your picture.
Yellow zinc is the finish.
