        I have not found any “off the shelf” product that really comes close.

          NY Marine, or Reprotint, The latter is in the US, both are top quality paints…

            While recently restoring my ’56 30hp, I searched quite a bit for a matching automotive paint and really couldn’t anything close enough in color to call it “good enough for me”. I ended up buying the Holiday Bronze from NY Marine. If you have a piece off the motor where the original paint is still in good shape and not faded, you could always take it an auto paint supplier and have them match it and mix some paint for you. I looked at that option on my ’56 but the cost was about the same as NY Marine.
