      Hi All
      What type of paint would you reccomend for repainting the above motor.
      I used Acrylic Lacquer on my 1947 Scott Atwater rebuild years back, but wondered if another type would be better these days.

      Thanks again for your help

        Monte,
        I use enamel with a clear coat . Seems to hold up decent and easy to apply if you follow the recoat instructions and cure times.
        My projects are basically just junk when I get them. 🤪

            Thanks Rusted Junk for your reply…….those photos say it all!
            What a finish and the decals set it off beautifully!
            The enamel with the clear coat is certainly streets ahead of my effort with lacquer.
            I presume that when fully cured it will stand up to fuel spills ok?

            Thanks again
