Gold? It's a thought.
I have been studying as many pictures as I can find of the engine, it seems that no-one can agree on colors, so I will be going with what seems most likely to me.
RLM 02 on firewall, dirty black engine block and hoses/wires in various shades of blacks and silvers.
If anyone has any info further, I would sure like to hear it.

These might help if you can read German Paul. I can't and don't remember all that's in them.

Use the "like" link Vic. It works like a bookmark and they're listed in your profile.

A little progress. The firewall is a "Before" shot.

Looking good so far Paul.
As for teeth, there was a Tipsy Nipper at my local aero club, flown by a group of my friends (not all at the same time!) which had a 'shark mouth' painted on the nose. Every time it had a forced landing away from the 'field, they painted out one tooth!
Paul, there was a colour code on German engines for the various pipes and wires, and I think there's some info somewhere here on the forum. I have it in a book somewhere, but it will take some time to find.

Wow, seriously good info! Thanks!
I am not an "engine" guy, normally. I prefer cockpits and landing gear, but,
Here is what I have done so far,...
