Anyone have a good source for the original grey for the 65 283 motors? My 65still retains its factory grey paint. I do have the original grey valve covers for my engine. Also, we have a good automotive paint supplier in our area here in central Pa. I'm thinking about pulling the motor this winter, cleaning things up a little and seems like a good time to respray the block. I could take the valve covers in for a paint match. But, perhaps someone has done a spray card. In the vintage Porsche community, we have a few guys that have done the research on correct paint colors. They offer these paint spray out cards for a small fee. Any thoughts?
