    My 15 year old has got his engine almost back together, he chose an interesting color for his engine, but the more I look at it, the better I like it. He is going to paint the under the hood Gothic Grey, and the car will be something close to engine color. His car, his color choice, I am just proud daddy spending time with his boy.

    That's sharp! I'm thinking about a similar color for my rod truck engine, if I ever get around to it!

    Looks good. I painted my Falcon Ginger Gold back in my high school days then ghost the body lines in a darker gold

    Pontiac used a very similar color in the early 60's! It looks great on a Ford engine too!:)
