I found a couple well used (dented) dust covers. I’d like to find some new ones but at $13 or more for new ones each, might have to let the Magnum 500s hide the covers

I’m getting ready to install the rotors and front brakes - NOS Calipers and hold down hardware I bought from @slantsixdan, new F Body brake hoses (the calipers will be mounted to the rear so the longer F Body hoses are required), and new Wagner semi metallic brake shoes through Amazon
I found some used hardware to secure the rotors to the spindle (one set shown)
But decided to order new since I only had one special washer
I’m in a quandary about the well used and dented dust covers. Do I use the used and hide them with the wheel or bite the bullet for new ones?

I would go black. Such a great restoration demands black front end components.
You’re correct! The adjustable strut rods were finished in gold. I painted them black as well as the tie rod sleeves
Installed each rotor and then caliper with new pads and bleeder at the top. I’m surprised that the caliper holddown packet had 12 mm bolts where the bolt holes on the caliper adapters was 5/16th NC. I will get to Lowes in a day or two for some Stainless Steel bolts and washers of the correct length
I need to raise this side (passenger side) so it won’t slide on the floor.
