Hi Folks<br />I have a 1972 evinrude 50hp lark.<br />Looking to re paint it and I’m having trouble finding the paint.<br />Looks like it was gold.<br />I have done several searches here and on yahoo with no luck.<br />It looks like a Tempo 6944 would be the color but I can’t find any one that has it.<br /><br />Im not sure if he knew what he was talking about but A guy told me that the gold was just the primer and the motor was actually blue.

My local Johhnyrude dealer has spray paint for those motors. Try your dealer.

Re: evinrude paint

Unless you're on a restoration project, your local auto stores have very large selection of superb auto spray primers and enamels. I completely did my 1983 70 hp Johnson last year out of these spray cans (with careful masking) and it still looks great this year. To be sure, get a canvas cowling cover when not in use (about $25).
