The original cold rolled weld was also visible though I had to replicate it as it mostly disappeared during the cleanup process. I then restored the slip yoke and installed new u-joints, mounted it and covered it in Boe-Shield (which is still wet in the photos). I also replicated the "XF" that would be found on the 69 M21. Still missing is the steel part number tag for the trans though I have a lead on one.
The build sheet calls for a Yellow and Green stripe. When stripping the shaft it looked to be an aqua green and almost like two different shades of yellow but I painted mine the same shade.

Rick, did you use the Boe Shield T9 in the aerosol can?
