Longbox55 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Not to sound lke a smart aleck, but the color would be Catapillar Yellow, which is i would describe as a dark mustard yellow. If you plan on building alot of Cat engines, you might check out the local farm store, like Tractor Supply, spray paint racks. You should be able to find Cat Yellow there.

sjordan2 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 (edited) If the answer doesn't show up soon here, you might want to post the same question down in the Trucks section, with a clear post title like: What paint for Caterpillar diesel?

Jon Cole Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Go on to Google. Type in "Catapillar Yellow". It comes up with a bunch of brands that offer Catapillar Yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another place you might try is a truck dealership if you have one close. If your lucky, you might even have a CAT dealer near you, and I'm sure they would have it.
