I have a late 70's webco and trying to find an original set of box style bars? I found two on ebay, but can someone please help me figure out which is correct?
Item # 7191986081 - black
Item # 7192010323 - yellow
I remember that mine were black, but were more of a parkerized black finish, any help would be appreciated.

My box bars were a matt black finish on my webco. The few bars I've seen on ebay are gloss black and the sweep is in a down angle. Strange? Must be repo's

Both of those bars are Taiwanese copies (Procycle?) of the original box bars. They are asy to tell because they have the knurls for a double or single stem. They are more than suitable for a build, just know that they were made quite a few years after the original box bars.

Well, I finally got the bike from my Dad yesterday.... really brings back memories of jumping apple bins with 2 2x12's on each end for ramps...but I found that I must've done some updates to it that I don't remember.....like having CW bars on it....I will take and post a pic of it tonight...a real survivor, the way I left it 20 years ago....even the tubes hold air! I guess I painted it red though, Bush Hog red, since my dad is a distributor for Bush Hog, anyways it also has Yellow Lester alloy mags, yellow seat....looks very colorful needless to say.
