    1968 Rear leaf markings

    Yes Silver would be correct for your springs. Our 68HCS C code also had silver although they were marked in a different location. Marty

    It drives you crazy till you figure out stuff like that and then it feels so good when it is solved. Been there many times. You have to be a little stubborn to put one of these cars together, a lot of people quit. Marty
