Subject: Re: More advice needed - engine mountings
Having experimented with BRG, 2 shades of Deep Brunswick Green, Landrover Green and a few others, I found a tin marked 'Green' and another tin marked 'black', and two parts Green to one Black is just about spot on! Not too bothered at the moment - I'm just trying to touch in the chassis while the engine is out where the paint has chipped or fallen off. Under the existing green, everything seems to be white or off-white, but over the top of that, somebody has painted EVERYTHING green, even the clutch plates!
Funny thing, I normally hate green - most of my cars are bright red - but I looked at a red 3.5 litre and red just looks wrong on a Lagonda, whereas dark green looks just right.
On the engine mountings, I thought those cups went underneath the chassis brackets - I'm sure that's where I took them off from anyway!
