All 85 BHP Ford V8s were painted 'Ford Dark Green'.
All 95/100BHP Mercury V8s were painted 'Ford Dark Blue'.

All wartime UCs and Loyds had 85BHP Ford Units.
All T16s received Mercury V8s.

You can get both from the US, try Joblot or duplicolor, they stock both colours...... but then comes the million dollar question.... what colour were the gearboxes painted, blue or green....ahhhhh

PS. The Loyd is getting a Ford Dark Green Flathead and box, however I'd like to know if it is supposed to be gloss, semi or matt?
