Hi,

I have a 22nd series with a grey/gray engine. I am deliberating having it painted by the bodyshop. ...figuring a catalyzed paint will hold up better than an air drying oil based paint. Are there any paint (mfg) codes out there for the engine paints?

Otherwise the I know that I will need to match it.

Thanks,

Mark

I don't recall anyone mentioning a modern paint that has been crossed to the engine colors the vendors supply. More than one has mentioned one of the Massey Ferguson tractor engine grays as a very close match to Packard engine gray though. Maybe a place to start in looking for a modern cross number.
