For all the history buffs, note the original fawn paint showing on the firewall of this Atlanta built truck. Body color is 510 turquoise.



I finished the other side of mine, and put it back together with fresh gaskets and belts,hoses, thermostat, etc. Still have to drop the oil pan to re-gasket and paint, and replace the motor mounts. I intend to repaint the mount towers at that time.
