1967 rear wheel bearing support finish

[Tim S.]

It is my understanding that the rear trailing arm assembly components should be finished as follows:

Trailing arm= Semi -gloss black vs. gloss black
Caliper mounting bracket= semi -gloss black
Wheel bearing support bracket = natural forged looking (except machined surfaces) vs. semi-gloss black

Is this correct?
Thanks
Tim

I have been told that in 1967, the wheel bearing support was painted semi-gloss black. During the C3 years I think GM stopped painting it, so it became a natural forged finish.
