Default 1951 Ford Custom Club Coupe Engine Paint colors
I have a 1951 Ford Custom Club Coupe with a 6 cylinder engine. I am wanting to know what color to paint the individual engine components?

Engine Block Bronze?
Engine Head Bronze?
Air filter housing Bronze?
Generator Bronze or Black?
Oil filter Bronze or Black?
Coil Bronze or Black?
Oil Filler cap and tube Bronze or Black?

Thank You!

Bill Hirsch has excellent engine paint including the bronze color. You can spray it or brush it on. This was painted 10 years ago.
