Post by guyjohnwood@aol.com » Sun Aug 23, 2015 7:44 pm

Dear all,

Does anyone have the colour code for the paint which the cylinder heads were painted, sort of gold / pumpkin colour.

Thanks and regards,

Guy

The gold paint was 'Bradite Old Gold' but any gold engine paint will do. The 'pumpkin' paint was used on the XK150's and the first 500 cars but if you have one of those you are unlikely to be asking the question here!
