djflyer Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I'm working on a couple of early 60's Pontiacs and need some Pontiac engine blue. Unfortunately the LHS are sold out of this color from Testors. Does anyone know of a good substitute, even if its a military flat I can still gloss coat it.

Snake45 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 If your Pontiacs are truly "early" '60s, a generic light blue should work, such as Testor #8. Pontiac didn't start using the iconic light metallic blue until 1966. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Chernecki Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Just buy a can of engine enamel, Plastikote #208 or Duplicolor DE1610 are the correct early 60s light blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djflyer Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Thanks guys, that gives me some good options. I can keep going with my Tempest and GTO's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
