so in your case for a 1968 (what Blackened was pointing out) its my favorite version of pontiac blue , the light metallic blue |
thanks for your input!
guys i really truly appreciate it- thank you for taking an interest in my project!!!
i find the chart very interesting.
in particular i like the disclaimer at the top...
"*These need to be researched more and are not guaranteed to be accurate."
but really, the chart is providing some very thought provoking information.
right now my engine paint looks similar to at least a couple shades shown there.
i wonder what it will look like after a few hundred heating/cooling
cycles... it'll probably turn green!!! ha!
the paint on the oilpan (pictured previously) isn't even much to go on i realize.
it might not even be the original oilpan!
i was just looking back through the phs documentation to see if i could find notes on engine color anywhere and i was surprised to find no mention of it.
did i miss something in there? where does a pontiac owner look to find engine paint documentation?
thanks again for putting out your thoughts and ideas here!
it's such a great site and i'm lucky to be able to share my project with this community!
