Correct air cleaner and valve cover gold source
« on: February 13, 2018, 12:19:10 PM »
Figure I would out this question here since it applies to the early cars. Who is selling the correct light gold for the valve covers and air cleaner? Is NPD's version light or dark? What about Virginia Mustang?

+1 re mixed.  I've always found the vendor color to be off (a bit too much of a greenish tint)

I provided a spray out card to Scott at NPD a few years back.  I believe that's what was used for the spray cans.  I've used it before, looks nice.
