Hood hinges, what color

[keiths71240Z]

Are the hood hinges and bolts, body color or gold zinc? How about the bolts( under the hood) that hold the front fenders? We are talking about original, from the factory. Thanks.....Keith

Kieth,

You will find this picture on IZCC's www.zhome.com site at the bottom of the menu - reference pictures - 1970 brochure. The fender bolts are painted. My Z has painted hood hinges, but that area has been painted numerous times over the life of the car and I am not 100% certain. However, I will be painting mine unless someone can convince me otherwise. It makes sense to me that the hinges would have been painted.
