Re: '70 LT1 Alternator Pulley & Fan Finish
Fan blades were actually galvanized. However, No platers I know can do this. Clear zinc as mentioned is a good alternative.

Re: '70 LT1 Alternator Pulley & Fan Finish
Zinc in my opinion it too shinny and not like originals. I use a technique to get mine to look like galvanized metal just like drain plugs, trunk drop downs and backing plates.

Re: '70 LT1 Alternator Pulley & Fan Finish
I only listed a few examples of some galvanized items, not all. Yes, some (but not all) Chevrolets are known to have come with galvanized gas tank straps.
