1979 EVINRUDE 85 HP color scheme

I have a 1979 85 hp Evinrude I think it said 1632 cc
Has power tilt .
I'm having a hard time finding the original color scheme.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you .

Sounds good, and if it hasn't been repainted, it looks real good! Well at least the starboard side
If that is an OMC/BRP prop, it looks like the Converging Ring is missing from back end. Whether or not it really does much has always been up for debate

Thank you .
The motor is really clean .
I got the boat from the second owner and he said he only had it a year and used it once .
I had the cowl off and the motor is really clean . I also wondered if it had been repainted but I don't think so after looking at it with the cowl off .
He kept the battery so I have to get one . I couldn't get the motor down with out power . I will get pics of it when I do .
Where do I get the ring . I noticed it was gone also .
Thanks
