Paint codes/names and brand suggestions for my 66

Post by 66RavenGTCoupe »

Hi guys,

I'm getting really close to begin repainting my bay and components and just wanted some suggestions for the closest colour matches that I can get to original for the following. Paint codes/names and brands would be awesome.

Inner fenders/ rad support (Can I get Eastwood in Australia?)

Brackets/ pulleys/ fan/ coil

Radiator

oh and interior black paint code/name and brand too please! I need to paint my steering column as PO leaked brake fluid all over it!

Also, has anyone come across anything other than POR15 or POR20 for the cast headers/ proportioning valve. I'm looking for a metal treatment like that Rust Prevention Magic stuff from NPD in the MM magazine

Any help here would be really great

Not sure about ur paints but I used this stuff on my manifolds, which NPD sells.
Went on easy enough and so far still looks as good as it does in the last pic.

Inner fenders and fire wall rad support just do them with black base and 2k matt clear. For the interior do the same

All the brackets, pulleys etc, were dipped in black paint.

That's exactly the stuff I was looking for. Thanks heaps. Could not remember where I saw it. How long has it been on your manifolds for? They look fantastic.

Well I only put it on a month ago but there has been no change in the look since then.
Have also seen it on ebay.
