Can anyone advise on who makes the closest engine paint match for a 70' 455. I used Bill Hirsch 20 + years ago and it was a very close match. Recently ordered it again and it seems a little too green.
Any help would be appreciated.

 

I bought from Tamraz, it was off. Covered it with Fusick and turned out nice.

 

I bought mine from The Parts Place

 

Last few 455’s I’ve used the blue paint from Supercars Unlimited. Looks nice and holds up pretty well.

My 72....

 

Very nice looking engine bay!

 

Thanks guys ! I appreciate the photos.
My engine color is closer to Ely's but it is so hard to tell from a photo. It is so easy to loose track of the original color with all the different aftemarket shades through out the years. I believe it to be a blueish green.

 

I think that looks good rick, i would say close to thethorntons paint i used on mine. Its not as blue as joz or 70s but still similar enough.

 

Thanks Retro, I've had this car 38 years and always remembered the original color being similar to what I currently have. I don't ever remember it being a solid blue color. Always remembered it having a little hint of green.

 

WOW 38 YEARS!
YES NOT SOLID
ID SAY THORNTON OR FUSICK BEST BET
Either way olds 455 had the nicest Blue engine color of all muscle cars ever made!

 

i agree any of the blues shown here all look good!
