The '53 202 ci Jet engine was painted Bronze like the Hornet engines. Likewise, the '54 Jets and Hornets were painted red. When needed I just went to paint store and purchased the colors in aerosol cans.

Thanks Jerry

Napa has good matches.

The high temp "Oldsmobile Gold" is the closest I have found. Recently, someone told me they were going to discontinue it so I bought a case, but not sure if that is true.

Dupli-Color's "Universal Gold" is as close as I've seen to the original.

I use Cadillac gold.

That Duplicolor "Universal Gold" was formerly sold as "Oldsmobile Gold" and is a very good match. I like a coat of their Gray primer under it to improve coverage uniformity. It's also a high-temp engine paint. With good prep, it's a tough, good looking finish.

And it looks more like the original if you don't lay it on too heavy. Let the texture of the cast iron show.

That's what used to be called Olds Gold. Same color.

Thank you guys I will try to find some of these colors
