Engine paint

[checker]

Wow, I just checked underneeth the car and the transmission is effectively painted same as the engine... with the wrong light green !!!  Meaning that at a point in time, somebody when thru the trouble of doing that paint job...what a waste then !!

All of you guys, thanks again for all the info you are supplying!

A really big thanks to everyone, I could not do this without you. The paint is on order with Gary.

as Gary recommends, apply paint with brush--no need to spray.
it flows on nicely and smoothly
mind to keep it stirred to keep the AL dust in suspension
touch-ups are invisible

Oliver & Hart Parr tractor paint (enamel), two types of green, heavy duty industrial paint, spray or brush.
The colors can be checked on other websites too...this is information sharing only since i don't have competency to tell if it's close to the right green.

For you to check over.

Here is my first 49 Frazer Manhattan motor that John Parker rebuilt for me and painted the right color.
 I wish I knew where that 49 Frazer was today...

I still have the 64 Econoline p/u !!  My Dad was a pack rat and saved this truck, I ask him for it years
  later and he said he was waiting for me to ask for it!!

Anyways, There's John Parker's 49 Frazer color. Yes, He was a really cool guy. One time I went there
 for a part, he let me work on my car at his shop in Fullerton,Ca., then a friend of his came over to have
 lunch with him and he told me not to sell his shop too cheap and off he went with his friend to lunch
 and left me by my self working on my car!!
I also remember needing hub caps for my 49 Frazer, he had NOS's ones for $25 each, and I thought to
 my self "I'm not going to pay $100 for 4 hub caps!! "  I should of bought all I could get!!
 I should of become a life member then... and not traded off my Frazer... But I was only 19yo...

Well enough of me rambling on... 

I need some of that paint too...

so my 1952 Kaiser manhattan with a blue engine is not correct

[joefrazer]

A 52 engine should be dark green.
