Hi,
My dad has a 1942 Allis Chalmer Model B that I am in the process of restoring. When it comes time to paint it I not only want it to be the color it should be, I also want it to last. Can you tell me where to get the right primer, paint and clear coat? Do I need to use a high temp. paint on the engine? ---Thanks---

Here are numbers for the right color:

Persian Orange #1 -- used from 1929 to 1960
PPG DAR60080
Martin Senour 99L-3723
TISCO TP280

Preparation is everything when painting. You need to remove all dirt, grease and rust. All of the metal should be straighten. I would use an epoxy primer with harderner. I would use a Surfacer such as Primeez from Martin Senour as it can be sanded. I would use either Martin Senour's Crossfire paint or PPG's Omni
Single Stage paint. You need to use a supplied air system wnen applying any of this paint. You can suffer severe health problems breathing any of the paint. Here's a picture of a tractor that a man in Ohio has prepared for painting and the finished tractor. Hal

There is a bunch of information about painting on this web site in the paint forums. I would also get a hold of a couple of books and go through them, pick up a old hood or something to practice painting on. Make sure you have the safety equip you need. ect... good luck
