Hey everyone,
I was just wondering what color should my engine be?
I have a 1950 Canopy Express that I bought 2 weeks ago and the engine in it is the same color as the truck blue. But I see people painting engines all different colors. What should it be?

here are some pics of my 1950 CE.

Please do a search (located at top) on this. It has been recently posted in this forum and others and literally discussed to death. That is why I always suggest to do your own homework first.

Pick one, everybody has their own opinion, but this is what many people who have their cars judged for originality feel is correct.

Dave,
I am new at this and to the site so, I apologize for asking any questions that might have come up in the past when I was not a member.
Next time I will try the search before I bother anybody.
Thanks
