the top color orig, the color around the waterpump is what they sent me.
top color matches the can top in their catalog.

Remember. Paint can (and does) change color over time. What they are sending may be the correct color but doesn't look right because of fading and heat cycles

That looks bluer than the turquoise color I've purchased from them in the past. Your original engine color is closer to what they used to sell.

i took a valley pan hold down with original paint on it and matched it to a close color out of the book, then tinted it to match........looks pretty good

That color looks pretty close to the paint I bought years ago. I still have a can in the basement.

There are some pictures of my engine here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/1967dodgecoronet440/

I need to resize.

I got this paint from the Chrysler dealer I used to work at over 20 yrs ago. The paint was at least that old. Sprayed just fine, Used all 6 cans.
