Hi Guys,

Just working my way through making my 72 look factory fresh-ish. All the marks were lost in the restoration so it's really just guessing to make my car look good. I currently have the car up in the air so access is prime right now to add in some inspection marks.

The castle nuts on the front suspension received an inspection mark. Were they red, orange or yellow? My internet research says it's a mixed bag. I have the orange white and yellow paint so if it's close enough I might just go around and add in some more markings. I think they look cool. Was it 100% correct for my car? who the hell knows.

It's been said before I should buy the judging book but it doesn't cover 1972 and up. It's a lot of money for something to still be wrong. 
Someday I will have a J0b.

When I disassembled  my 70 cuda (original nuts) they where still painted orange.. I had to clean all the grease off them to see it.
