I have a set (actually 2 sets) of Bronze Shock Absorbers and the matching bronze arms. These things were made by, I think I have it right, by Chicago Machine way back in the '70"s. Both sets are in good working condition, so i am using then on twwo different projects. The base is bronze but the covers are original Ford-Hoodille (sp). With a coat of pretty black paint most folks cant tell the difference. The only downside is they have a 50/50 resitance rather than the original 60/40 resistancd. kenp
