68C top irons

I need an authoritative answer on the top irons for a 68C, only. Don't need to know about A or B. or about any other hardware or landau irons. Those I have Ford backup on.

Are the folding irons on the 68C nickel or chrome. I know that 68C is often akin to A400 and those are nickel. Dunno??

I have a pair of originals that are distinquishable(faintly) and what is left appears to be nickel. Also, the way they have deteriorated, does not appear to be chrome.

I am getting ready to make a set of remakes that will be of same gauge, etc as originals. Hopefully, exact as to originals.

I cannot/have not found in authoritative literature if they were chrome or nickel. Help, please!!

Best to all,

Marco, I believe the windshield slider nuts were nickle also.

Actually Ford introduced chrome slide arms, Cups, and nuts for the 68-B and continued that with the 68-C and 400-A. The same applied to the brackets and thumb screws that clamp the front header down.
