    What is the correct fuel tank color for a 1968 911T and a few other Q’s

    I am finally working on the assembly of my 1968 911T hard window Targa.
    7 yrs into this restoration. The Glasurit singe stage Polo Red paint was just shot a month ago.

    I’m trying to make it as original as possible. I need to sell the car to cover my wife’s Cancer Bills and treatments (she is cancer free now and recovering) .

    It’s a 5/68 Build if that makes a difference .
    ‘68 is a goofy year with some 1 year only parts and oddities.


    What color should the fuel tank be?
    I did a lot of searches and come of with no definitive answer of black or grey.
    Some posts alluded that is it’s a Karmann built car like my 911T that is could be different from a 911S for example?

    Are the brake backing plates front and rear plated yellow zinc or black?

    Are the top strut mounting bolts and retainers yellow zinc? Or clear zinc?

    And is that strut top mounting washer and nut clear zinc? Or yellow zinc?
