1275 Engine Paint Schemes?

[manik]

After seeing this blue race-prepped 1275 on eBay (ok, it's a 1380), I was wondering if anyone else has some non-traditional color schemes for their engines?

I've got the Duplicolor High Temp Aluminium engine paint going on now. It looks shiny, clean and new.
When I get the motor out this winter, I will likely go back to BMC green.

yes - BMC green - 1500 /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Cummins Beige! (Clean & easy to locate oil leaks!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbsup.gif ).
PS: I had a black, krinkle-finish valve cover on this one!

I've seen a photo of a "hot pink" A-series. ...if that is your cup of tea.

I've done them at request every color combo you can imagine, I mostly use a combo of black and gray on my race motor, very industrial looking. When using two colors I like to use the contrast between the two colors on each opposing part, for example gray block, black front engine plate, gray timing cover, black balncer, I used that same two color scheme with many color combos, it turns out nice.
