Engine paint

Painting the poly 318 engine

Pekka Pere has compiled the following information.

A good match is given by the Chrysler Industrial Red (DE 1632) Engine Enamel by Dupli-Color. It's called red, but dries to a red-orange color.
The (off-site and now off-line) Andre Roy created Mopar Mail List table for engine colors indicated that an exact match is given by NAPA farm equipment spray paint, International-Harvester red by Martin-Semour paints.
Finally, the best hint, in my opinion, has been given by Paul Pitcher who has uncovered the Ditzler code 71034 for acrylic enamel for the polyhead.


Thanks, Pekka!

An additional Mopar engine color chart is also available from the Walter P. Chrysler Club's magazine.
