Butch, another option after galvanizing spray is a Clear Coat.
Whenever/ after- I clean up Hardware or radiator clamps or thermostat housings on wire wheel, I clear coat them.

65 Dodge a100 pickup
Dozen others.
I'm thinking did the blasting of the galvanized items take off some zine protection? I seem to recall some people using a cold galvanize spray.

etc. etc.
There are also companies that sell an "Electroplating System Tin Zinc" like Eastwood's version:

Others may have more detailed information.
Glad to hear you are back at the 1964's restoration!
Thanks,
