Can someone tell me what the correct engine paint color is for a 1949 23rd Series Super Deluxe with a 327 CID engine?
Thanks,
Mike

Owen,
I just bought my 5th Packard yesterday. It is a 1949 23rd series Super Deluxe. Someone painted the engine blue, so I will change it back to grey. What a job. My '50 Deluxe is grey, too. Well, that's one more thing to do!
Thanks,
Mike

Your job will much easier if you buy a couple spray cans of Massey Ferguson grey at Tractor Supply. Works great, and a decent match to original.

Ross,
OK, thanks for the great tip. We have a Tractor Supply here in Dodge City, so I will do that.
