Hello All,
Can someone please clarify something for me?? What is the correct (off the shelf rattle can) color engine Paint for a 1956 Chevy Bel Air Engine?? At my local part store they have the popular Chevy Orange DE1620 and a DE1607 = Chevy Orange/RED. But i have read that 1956 was real red...not orange/red, such as DE1653 = RED. Which of these is correct??

Thanks in advance my friends,

Ed

I think Seymour has an engine paint 'Chevy Red' EN-59 which is correct...
