I have a 1957 deluxe heater that I am re-doing for my 1957 Cameo truck. My questions is this. What COLOR should the heater box and fan be and what is a good source for a rattle can spray paint that would be close?

I want it to appear as original as possible.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Rustoleum makes several shades of hammertone. I found one that was close enough for me for my '54 GMC. I don't know which one you'd need.
