And battleship gray engines. :)


Officially, there is no such color. Battleships, pickups, and
everything between, are painted ' Haze Gray '.

Well Richard. You may be right, but there's a lot of paint companies
that label their stuff "Battleship Gray or 'grey'" And of course, tere
are a wide variety of tints with the same name.

My brother painted his 1946 Ford Battleship Gray. Because that was the
paint available. I will have to inform him it was really Haze Gray.
