I may be stupid asking this, but........... does the colour of military vehicle engines vary according to the age of the vehicle, whether it's been overhauled or dependant on who made the vehicle.
I need some engine paint for my Albion. The sump appears to be something like duck egg green. The top of the engine appears not to have been painted, but that could be because it may not be of military origin. Can some knowledgeable person tell me what colour it should be? Would the gearbox be the same colour as the engine or the same as the rest of the vehicle? (Gloss green)
At the risk of sounding like a cheapskate, and bearing in mind that most enthusiasts rarely see the engine; perhaps I should just paint the sump, as this is the only part of the engine that could be seen without removing the engine covers..................
