CANGA
Hello friends I am from Malta EU. I own a Pontiac Trans Am 1978 bandit style 6.6ltr 400 pontiac engine. I need some information, i hope you can help me. I am going to repaint the underneath of the car, engine and gearbox. Can you guide me and tell me the exact color name of the paints for each one. For the engine i found out that it is called GM Corporate Blue. Maybe you can confirm this pls and suggest codes for the best paint brand. I was going to use Sikkens. Is the gearbox painted black or silver like in camaros? (To expell heat) The underneath of the car is like a sort of brownish orange color apart from the chassy that is black. Is this how they where done back in the days? Mine is still like this. I hope you can help me please. With the exact color names and codes.. Thanks in advance.
