Big Kev...Your 54 looks like the paint on my engines.. Do you have the paint numbers off the paint can from Hirsch... I have a 49 Custom 8 Conv. 356 and a 50 Super Delux Fast Back 2 door 327 and both have the color of your engine. According to Hirsch there was a color change 6-8 years ago... The New color Packard gray 48-54 [5670-7130] is much much darker than the Med Gray. My old can is listed as Med Gray High Gloss.
I am getting ready to paint the head on the 356 and looking for paint. My old can numbers are not very readable. p7642 and dpy 6420069 ???? If I am lucky enough someone might have want to get rid of the left over...
