Default Re: engine colors

rotowrench,


I've looked at that Ford tractor color in the past. Its an odd grey that can sometimes look almost green under different lighting. I don't believe its what was used on the Canadian V8s from 48-52.


Attached is a picture I made up showing the largest sample of original paint beige that I have. Its been cleaned with soap and water only. Next to it is a cummins beige paint cap for comparison.
