Anybody have an idea where I can get GMC V8 engine paint. Or at least a reddish orange that’s close.
Thanks,
Craig

How close is Chrysler Industrial Red?

Chevy Orange or Chevy Red-Orange might be close.

VHT also makes a Chrysler Red that looks more orange.

I use Dupli-Color 1605 Ford Red engine paint. Not exact, but close enough that you'd need an original engine sitting beside it to tell the difference. And available at your FLAPS.


'57 GMC 102, Original 347 V8, HydraMatic, 3.08 rear gear, added A/C, disk front brakes, HEI, AFB carb, '98 Honda Black Currant paint. T-boned and totaled 10/12
'52 GMC 152 Stake Bed, Original 228, SM420, added A/C, HEI, disk front brakes, '67 Chev 3.55 rear gear. Gets used as a real truck.
