Baldy,

Can you find the Chevs of the 40s' and the Filling Station's part numbers for the 1954 truck engine paint?

Both companies seem to list a blue paint for cars and trucks (as does Chevy Duty - Classic Parts of America).

Sorry, VCCA, I'll still go with the gray on a 1954 truck engine. Jim Carter's gray (and Bob Adler's gray) matches the gray on pictures for 54/55 sales brochures (yes, I know the colors on sales are notoriously questionable)

Thanks, Tim

The 216 and early 235 engines are not "splash oilers" -- this is a splash oiler.
