I've read the driveshaft postings (3 threads) and this may be a new question. I have just finished prepping the shaft for restoration.
I'm going to paint my driveshaft because I can't stand the thought of it spinning beneath me as I tool down the road, me having fun, it pitting and rusting all over again. It was a mess!
I am assuming, at this point, that the shafts were bare metal from the factory. It appears that the ends were phosphated black; they had no pitting, and only minor surface rust under the black. Opinions from those who know more about this?
If the shafts were indeed bare metal: does anyone have suggestions on a paint that would match ACAP the original look of a newly-made driveshaft as it came off the line? Over this I would re-stencil the stripes and numbers I found on the Kar; more on this data later.
Thanks in advance!
