A few years ago (June 03 I think) this was a thread on here. I had a 66 C20 with a 327 at the time. From my research, in the early 60's, Chevy pickup engines were blueish grey (Chevy engine blue), cars were Chevy engine orange. I painted my engine that blue. Looked weird since we are so used to seeing orange. Especially since my truck was dark green and the engine compartment was flat black.
