I know there were threads on this before and I reviewed them but did not really get the full answer. I am looking for the brushable engine enamel for a 55 clipper custom. Were all clipper engines ivory or red? mine is AB paint code and the firewall and engine seem to be tourmaline. The turquoise listed by the vendors seems to be much darker than what im looking for. Is anyone 100% sure that this color could not have been used on the engine from the factory? The car was in the original exterior paint when we aquired it and I dont believe the engine was ever out. I dont see any other paint color or primer where the paint ts checked and cracking on the wpump or block. What valve covers would have come on this eng? Plain bl Packard script etc? thanks
