It looks great, but I think those silver components had a dull, brown, dark plating color like this vacuum motor I found on eBay. This way they are better hidden under the seat.

I base this on my 66's jack screw finish. I improperly painted mine corner jacks silver, but I left the fore/aft ones original and they are not black, grey, or silver.

I think it is called Olive-Drab (Green) Passivate plating.
Olive-Drab(Green)PASSIVATE produces a heavy olive drab chromate coating on zinc or cadmium plated surfaces.
Olive-Drab(Green)PASSIVATE provides the maximum salt spray and abrasion resistance of any type of chromate dip and is a satisfactory product for meeting Government specifications for this type of finish.
Olive-Drab(Green)PASSIVATE produces an excellent base for subsequent painting and can replace organic type primers for this purpose. The smooth glossy olive drab color produced by Olive Drab(Green)PASSIVATE is an outstanding final finish for many types of applications.
Olive-Drab(Green)PASSIVATE will withstand salt spray testing of 150 -225 hours before the appearance of white rust and 400 - 750 hours before the appearance of redrust.

That looks fantastic. It looks better than original and good enough to be seen.

It does look good. I'd probably charge between $400-700 for it, myself.
