Does anyone know of a close match for the orange that 'doo used in the late 70s/early 80s on the clutch covers? It doesn't have to be an exact match, just a colour to freshen up the underhood appearance of my Elan that I'm fixing up for my nephew.

Revrnd,
I've used the old GM corporate orange engine enamel. Krylon has an engine enamel pretty close to the old Roller Square Shaft governor cups and scatter shields.

I never thought of that colour. It would probably work as the covers are faded pretty good so I wasn't sure what the original orange looked like. Thanks for the tip.
