    One color that was a good match was the appliance epoxy paint that you could find at most any store’s paint department. Maybe harvest gold? I don’t see it on the shelves any more. I have used Krylon colormaster "Bauhaus gold" with good results. Use a clear coat on this paint as gas will dissolve it almost immediately. The legs on all these motors seem to be a dull aluminum. On the 410’s the gas tank and the lower shrouds were also dull aluminum. The blue color you may have to find a match for that. I will take a painted part with me to a parking lot and compare the color with the cars there. Sometimes I get lucky and can get the right paint for my motor.
