It would be pretty yellow if it was in a D8 :)
(Navy paint comes in 3 colors, gray, gray, and gray)
I like the battery on the ground for scale, I dunno if people looking at the pic know just how honkin big those engines are ....
Very nice restore job :)

*This is the closest i could find to Navy stationary machinery grey. While prepping it there was alot of grey under the sloppy yellow. When i removed the crankcase breather a good large area of original grey was found, I matched it to this color (Ford Gray) and left the original paint on the backside of the breather. thanks.
