Being I wasn't even around when this truck was bore, anyone know what color this 235 engine should be?
After hours of cleaning parts the only parts that had any color left on then was the parts that have black paint and the oil filter housing that was blue with a orange lid. :dunno2

All 235's in trucks were gray color in 1954. A 261 would have been green that year. The oil filter is probably a Fram aftermarket unit as a filter was not OE.

Thank's, a little on line reading later it appears that if it had a automatic, it was blue and gray if it had a standard transmission.
