I got a little crazy the other day, and painted the engine. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
The color may not be perfect, but I think it's very close. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
My camera's not the best in the world, but with the naked eye it looks much better than I thought it would. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
When people look at the engine now, they say, "Wow, that's nice!" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bow.gif[/img]
Anyway the paint was very easy to find, at Advance Auto. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]
Dupli-Color makes it, and it's called "Alpine Green Pearl!"
part# DSCC 399, the strange thing is it's a listed as a Daimler-Chrysler color. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
It only came in small cans, the counter person said, maybe because, it was probably considered a import color! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img], "right" I thought!? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thud.gif[/img]
If you noticed my bad over spray, well I liked the looks of it so much, I almost sprayed everything in sight. I wasn't able to get a picture of the newly painted cat! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Forgive me, I still can't post these pictures in the post? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
Looks Excellent Timber!! Man, when I went to paint mine, I saw that Dupli-color at the parts store, but didn't have anything with me to compare it too from my motor, and because it said it was a DC color, I didn't buy it. So I bought a Dupli-color that said " GM Blue " and after squirting it on, it almost looked Ford blue....embarrasing! Anyway, next time I have it all apart, I am going with the Alpine! Hey, is that a 90 degree vacuum hose coming of your vacuum advance? Where'd you get that!
Yes, that is a 90 degree elbow on the vacuum advance hose.
I'm pretty sure I picked it at the local Advance Auto, if I remember right, they had a pretty good assortment of vacuum fittings, and such. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
