Engine Paint Color Edsel E475
I'm wondering what paint is closest to the factory green & off white engine paint to the factory colors on an E475?

Re: Engine Paint Color question
Bill Hirsch automotive supplies has Edsel green in high temp. enamel. It's available in quarts. The off-white is available in the Rust-oleum brand or you can use Ford wimbelton white. You may want to visit/join either of the two Edsel chat sites. They are bothe on yahoo groups; edselmail and edsel restoration and preservation. Good luck with your car!!

Re: Engine Paint Color question
Thanks! I've been trying to find that out, all I've found is the Porsche green on the edsel.com site. I joined the yahoo groups but there doesn't seem to be any real organization, I wish there was an actual edsel forum.
Re: Engine Paint Color question
I used the Porsche Green and had the local paint shop put it in rattle cans. Here's a link to the picture of the Edsel 410 that was painted with that particular paint. Still holding up well at this point with over 6K miles on the engine.
