I'm starting to collect all of the parts to rebuild the front suspension on my 74 Charger. I would like to blast all of the parts I am reusing and paint them as close to original as possible. Does anyone have a good reference of what is what color for our 3rd gens, especially the 74. All I could find was 2nd gen Chargers or E-bodies.

As far I know, semi gloss black for 73/74. Although I got a NOS LCA set at a dealer which weren't painted.

I think it's unusual for NOS not to be painted. They would have wanted it to stay rust free on the shelves. Kind of hard to sell a part with rust on it. They didn't seem to care about this as much on the assembly line. Are you thinking most of the parts are semi gloss black? I'm thinking most would be left raw steel or cast. I was really hoping to find a reference somewhere. Easy to find for e-bodies.

The NOS LCAs I got are zero rust really. Just some “rusty dusty”
There are several referential pics around from 71/72 B body suspension parts, but nothing about 73/74.
