    From what I can tell the engine in my '51 GMC was painted red or orange.

    Does anyone know what the official colors should be and are there any spray can sources? (yes I know that doing a spray can paint job is less than perfect but I have limits to funds and teardown capability).

    thanks,
    bob

    Dupli Color "Ford Red" is real close and available at any FLAPS.

    Thanks Bill. It looks like it will be a nice match.
