              Sorry, another part orange

              What about the distributor cover brackets that are orange. Were they mounted before painting or painted then attached.
              Thanks Again.

                  I will go out on a limb and suggest that your 69 brackets are similar to my 72. Mine are brushed and still show brush marks. I would suggest that yours are the same. Fwiw, the brushing is really sloppy and quit ugly. Typical GM I guess. It almost looks like the painter was using an old paint bucket that had sat out a little too long and the paint was starting to get just a bit thick.

                      '69 Z/28 spark plug wire supports (aluminum intake, Flint-built) are the same way - brush-painted orange.

                          As John said, with aluminum intake manifold -- brush painted, but if the intake is iron the distributor shield supports were spray painted with the engine.

                          If I recall correctly wording to this effect is in the TIM&JG for both 1968-69 AND 1970-1972.
