Perhaps paint drippings
http://www.pollockauto.com/

And, as with most auto restoration shops that do a professional job, it's
not a place for bargain-hunters.  

The '41 Cadillac convertible shown was actually maroon (an accurate color
for that year); the '40 LaSalle 50 series sedan shown in the outdoor shots
was indeed black.

I do like the Jupiter 8 quite a bit (coated prewar Biogon 50/2 manque), now
that it's been shimmed properly.  Before I had focus problems with it--since
supposedly these lenses require some adjustment when used on non-Russian
L-39 cameras.

Best,
