AMC engine color?

[br67]

Hi, have recently bought a Johan AMX and SC Rambler and am looking for a good color match for the engine block - any suggestions? Thx

The 1:1 '69 AMX I owned (390) had a turquoise color to the block. IIRC, 1968-70 390's during these years were turquoise. I can't think of any paint type off the shelf that may have this. Perhaps MCW might have this in their product line?

68-69 AMC engines were painted a very bright, sparkly turquoise metallic.

Duplicolor #440 Bright Aqua is a decent match...

I think I may consider Model Master 2765 turquoise

Even on my 1/1 scale AMC's I do not worry about original block color....it's made...but it's about 3 times the cost of the Ford engine blue I use....that I can pick up down the street.....the AMC color you have to order.
