1972 350 Gold Rocket Paint Color?

Hello everyone, does anyone know where I can get the paint to re-paint my 350 rocket engine back gold? Or does anyone know the paint code? Im sure all years of the 350 gold rocket engine paint are the same but I thought I'd specify what year I have upfront.

Thanks..

I have used "DupliColor" Gold many times and have been very happy with the results. It is easy to find, a whole lot cheaper, and covers pretty well. I found a trick years ago----heat the spray can and the paint flows, sets up, and lasts much better.

"DupliColor" Gold Engine Paint (of course) NOT the spray touch-up. You should be able to find it at any parts store for @ $6.00 a can.

The POR15 Olds gold is very vibrant...


...but it discolors at the exhaust ports...


Not sure if the other paints do this or not or if it is as bad...

Dupli-color. I know it is not "correct" but less expensive and has lasted for me.
I use it for everything, from the drive shaft to the rotors and brake drums.

I have no idea how you guys do the big pictures.....
