That natural aluminium color gets terribly tarnished… i would like something different, since I am in the processing of rebuilding the jeep.
"jeep" you're on the wrong forum! Yes, the original Land Rovers were based on a Wileys Jeep but they 'aint 'jeeps" :p;):D
The bell housing on mine is au naturel, they don't normally get painted.
Any colour you like as it's your "jeep"
 
Mines a lovely Matt grey colour
It’s taken 37yrs to get it just right:oops:

I would have to also ask why?

The gear box is painted but the bellhoising is left bare ali as is the flywheel housing on the engine.
 
I do not think anything on old cast alloy will last for to long, then it will come off in sheets.
 
Thanks for everyone's input... although there is product on the market that seems promising it is called Clearshot by Rustbullet.
It is a clear coat super tough paint that could work, as it would preserve the natural colour of the aluminium. I think I will try that.
