Hi,
Today I removed the original front shocks from my 1968 Dino Coupe. They are RIV and had the remnants of a dab red paint on the center bolt threads. This was used at the factory to signify that the assembler had tightened the center nuts and the three nuts holding the shock tower plate.
However, the shocks are not green as I've read in all of the Dino RIV posts. After a little cleaning, these have reveled themselves to be a bronze/brown (see the pictures) color!
Any information and pictures would be greatly appreciated. The shocks function well, so it's restoration time.
grazie,
