      I have started to work on repainting my caille model 12 since I have located a set of decals.  Was wondering if anyone had any pictures of how the paint should look like when done and/or what colors the motor should be?

        First, here’s a link to images of other Model 12’s.

        I’m attaching an image of mine after it was reclaimed.

        It looks to me like the cylinders are gray or possibly silver. You can p[aint the crankcase the same colour as the cylinders. Transom bracket is silver. everything from there on down is bare metal/ Some parts might be nickel plated. the lower unit is just bare aluminum. Tank flywheel and rope sheave are polished. Hope this helps

        He's livin' in his own private Idaho..... I hope to go out quietly in my sleep, like my grand-dad did..... and not screaming, like the passengers in his car...
