Flathead Paint Color

[svm99]

I have a couple of the '39-'41 blocks which are of the "99" series, keystone water passage, thicker cylinder walls, "raised deck" etc. which were painted the '46 era dark blue. I've heard Ford painted these 95 Hp engines blue to distinguish them from the 85 Hp green painted engines when installed in Fords.

Just information, only partially related to this thread. Paul J.
