Candy Apple Red for 67 CL 77

[Bob-simmons]

Does anybody know the paint numbers (and manufactor) for the Candy Apple Red used on the 67 CL 77? Also since this would be newer paint, do I need to paint the parts Gold first or does the new paint come in one can, plus clear coat? Thanks Bob

If this is not a factory paint job, then it was done before the bike was ridden. The "primer" looks like the silver paint, then a gold layer than the Candy Apple Red paint. The rear shocks are metal covers painted red. The paint, where it is not washed away from sitting outside for many years, is a brillant Candy Red. Any ideas ? Thanks Bob Simmons

These old CL77 Hondas were painted custom colors and some owners bought lots of chrome parts to make their bike different from all the others. I think that were you to look at one of my restoration paint jobs you would assume the same as to when the bike was painted. Not at all difficult to do. ........lm
