meteor Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I have searched for the correct 1940 special and it seems that gray is correct. What color is my engine. Photo attached. I hope. Thanks Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmTee Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Is this a trick question? Yours looks gray. It seems similar to the 'Charcoal Gray' identified here: https://www.libuickclub.org/buick-engines 1939-1940: Buick Charcoal Gray Edited June 29, 2022 by EmTee (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meteor Posted June 29, 2022 Author Share Posted June 29, 2022 Thanks EmTee I think that is the same color just brighter lighting. Nobody seems to sell that color. Thanks Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILIKECARS53 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Did you try Bill Hirsch. They're colors are usually good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave39MD Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 It looks a lot like the dark grey Chevrolet engine paint from The Filling Station, www.parts123.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
