Help with park brake parts finish

[DRGT350]

All,

What was the original finish for the parking brake equalizing bar, cable bracket and rod for a April '65 car?  Mine have been blasted and painted black.

Thanks for your help ..!

What I've found when cleaning original parts:

Equalizer bracket - zinc w/dichromate (gold)
Equalizer bracket - zinc (silver)
Equalizer adjustment stud - zinc w/dichromate (gold)
Equalizer adjustment stud nut - cadmium or zinc (silver)

Thank you Charles
