Dave,
Ford used a color called Argent for its wheels at one time, and
that is thought to be closest to the color of the MG wheels.

I replied facitiously the first time, but guys on the Spridget list suggest
Krylon SIlver (Argent in French?) and a coat of matt polyurethane on top.
The polyurethan apparently kills the "bright" silver of the paint and dulls it
to match the factory finish. Now, how that can be related to powdercoating?
I have no idea.

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Skinners Union
carburetors in his vintage MG, highly functional yet pleasingly formed,
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for experienced
hands,
the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be inspected and
adjusted as
described in chapter seven of the Haynes shop manual.
