Couple questions, what's the finish on the engine bar? Painted or bare metal? Next would be the color of the blower hoses from the exchangers to the ducts; orange or black? What is the closest high temp paint you found to match the factory color of the exhaust system; muffler & exchangers? The branch pieces; I seen grey and black. What year did they change; mid 73?
Just as a side note, I found a Powder company that will make an exact match of the factory tin color. $100 to develope, $15-$25 per pound with an intial minimum of 5 lbs. If there is enough intested to cover the development cost of the color match, I'd be happy to send in the tin for matching. Say 4 or 5 people to keep the cost down. |

Hey Tod, depending on the price I would be interested in getting my engine tin done, but it would only happen later this year (winter) when I drop the motor for detail. PM me with info if you can.
As far as exhaust system paint, George from AA says to use the Wurth zinc paint (im not sure the exact name) but I know I can get it through work. For the branch pieces, they may have changed over the years? I've seen mostly black, but if you've seen grey then thats a possibility. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) |
