Preheater shroud finish??
 
2 Attachment(s)
The preheater shroud that is on my 70 GTO appears to have been painted black. Is this correct?? This is an original untouched car that has been in a barn since 1991.

We bought a bunch of NOS preheat shrouds back in the early 1980s.
 
They were either natural steel or had some type of silver 'plating' on them.

I'll see if I can find one of them and take a pic.

It seems as I remember buying one new from a Pontiac dealer in 1980 and it had a silver finish. Most of the ones I have seen have been silver. Even on other GM vehicles.

Check road test article pix from '69, '70. Shroud for '68 was black.
