Re: Dragging home something very original today...

Here are a few questions about things I can't figure out. Let me know what you guys think...

Chalk marks on the core support. Are these original? Or from an oil change or something random later in life? I have never seen these.

This air cleaner looks really clean. Too clean. Do you think this is NOS? Aftermarket? Restored? From a different model vehicle? I don't know much about air cleaners, or if the sticker is the right type.

Uncoated hood hinges and hood latches. It almost looks like they were sand blasted. However, I do see some indications from other truck photos that maybe these parts were just not coated from the factory? What have you guys seen?
