Don,

I've seen cars like yours before,all of them from the Western 
region.I've got a K member taken from a low mile Nevada car that is 
painted grey.I'll send you a pic.Granted,not bluish-grey but the color 
could depend on what was available to the factory at that time.

Any evidence of collision or suspension damage(frame repairs, dents,etc) 
that would've necessitated changing all the components? Is the rest of 
the underbody the same color? Did you notice if the bolts that hold the 
K frame to the body were painted as well?

Sorry for all the questions,Don.I'm just not an advocate that all those 
parts should be painted black to be correct.
