Would appreciate any help with the paint code for "Machine Black" or the correct paint colour for the engine bay & boot. Thank's, Frank. Edited by user Monday, 9 June 2008 2:56:16 AM(UTC)

There isn't really a correct colour from what Warren has indicated before. It's Warrigal black mixed with whatever was left over from the previous shift. Very early HK GTS Monaros had gloss Warrigal black engine bays but later it became a satin finish.

Can I ask for some more help with Body Tags & Firewall stamps, please.
Big Tag - HK569A-03597B = HK Prem Sed Auto 03597 Brisbane, what does 03597 mean? 3597th Prem?
Trim - 1162-12T = Yulunga Maroon (no inserts).
Paint - 587-10686 = Burgandy Metallic.
