I've got a few old chevy trucks, a 36, a 57, a 65, and a 72. The 36 and the 57 are streetrod projects on hold, waiting for me to find time and money. Seems like I never have both at the same time. The 65 is in the middle of a rebuild/update that's not happening fast enough. The 72 is a running truck with a factory big block that I haven't even started in about three months.
I do restorations and build street rods for other people in my own shop, (now you know why mine are not finished). Currently restoring a 54 chevy 1/2ton for a customer, which brings me to my question. What's the correct engine color for a 54?

Like Bill says you will more than likely find the answer to any question you may have right here. I'm no longer a bolt owner but this place is so great and addicting I can't give it up.

I also found the posts in the paint and body section about this. Interesting how many are different. The truck I'm working on was made in Mexico, so that's probably a whole other can o' worms.
