I think you are correct. I have looked at a lot of B&W photos from teh era and all seem to be of that configuration as far as I can tell. Good thing I have painted all the Generator and starter black then. Everyone thanks... Painting tomorrow hopefully. Ian

On the second factory pic you can easily see that the motor isn't body colour but it doesn't look black. The black air cleaner stands out in the first one and the 216 in the 3rd pic isn't body colour either. The low mileage original engine in my HUP was grey and the military rebuild in my C8 was khaki. All this leads me to believe that the factory engines were the manufacturer's colours and the military rebuilds were likely whatever military colour they had in the shop at the time. The accessories on the C8 and the HUP were still black.

Morning MLU
 Not quite sure what shade of Green this paint is but here is a link to some at Mac's .......... http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb....ta~partsort~A2 Ive ordered from Mac's before thanks to Keith Webbs link a while back, ordered new repros of the Ford clutch and brake pads molded to a thick steel plate with the studs on the back to screw to the pedal , made in India but look very nice and @$ 5.50 US each are the bargain of the year If anyone needs foot pads Id heighly recomend getting a set  On another subject has anyone found a source for NOS or repro rubber shifter boots for a Ford ?, being the only thing that is left of mine is around the mounting flange  I have no idea what they look like when new.
