Hood alignment pin and latch on 68 442
What finish would be the best for hood hardware? Everything has been bead blasted. Just wondering which would be the toughest and least prone to wear?

Hood latch - I believe it is supposed to be just bare metal. I painted mine chassis black, though - I wanted it to have protection from rust and chassis black pretty much matches everything else in that area.
Hood hinges - the original finish on them is a grey color. I bead blasted mine and painted them cast metal grey - it's a pretty close match to the original color. I took my springs off, blasted them, and painted them a color called stainless steel. The hinge assembly looks pretty close to what they looked like when they were new.
Hope this helps.
