Engines painted gold

Looking for some pictures of engines painted gold. My Ford 390 is getting back together and I need some ideas.

I did the search and didn't find as much as I was hoping...

Thanx, Ramon

 

gold

 

Barrowed photos.

 

This is the mockup what i have so far. Valve covers will be finned aluminium ones, i hope...

 

Here is a 32 cabriolet that I had pic of. I know a few people with gold flattys

OK copper not gold lol

 

I can't post pics from my phone, but if you look my profile, my 292 is gold.

 

Chief, is that guy bent over with the lite shirt on, Pontiac Charlie in Miami? Has or had a little shop over by the Opa-Laka airport. I used to do the 600 inch Blower engines for the guy in the bay next to him, if it's who I am thinking of.

 

This would look even better with gloss clear engine paint over the gold, it makes a big difference.

 

no thats my buddy casey, i been looking for pontiac charlie for years.

 

The engine in my Shoebox is gold but I don't have any good pics right now. I love engines painted gold, especially in customs.

At least a couple of manufacturers used it, usually to signify on their flagship motors, Ford used it on T-birds and on the valve covers on Hi-po motors, Caddy used it on the Eldorados, and several years Olds motors were gold.

 

Couple of shots of the on I'm doing for the Gasser

I just painted her gold a few weeks ago

 

Whoa! Not to hijack this thread, but that is awesome. Any more pics?

build thread, second to last page...

 

Not all gold, what about the mid 60's Ford engine paint scheme. Black engine with gold valve covers and air cleaner? My last shop did a real nice 352 tri power engine that way. No pics, but it looked real nice.

 

Been posted on the HAMB many times before, but one of my favorite pics.

 

Gold, just not the block.

 

Me likes GOLD! And it weighs the same as gold too!

 

Stock Black and Gold

 

i like 5the color of gold used on the 350 olds small block.

 

This one from another thread.

 

Thanks for the great pics guys!! I got some nice ideas for my 390 Ford. Really need to get me a pair of finned valve covers!
