1959 Ford truck 292

Annie, In Paul g. McLaughlin's restoration guide "Ford Pickups 1957-67", they list the 1959 F-series 292 engine paint as follows: red, blue, black for block, black for accents. The book doesn't specifically list which parts are which color though. I used to have a 1959 F100 with a 292, and I now have a 1959 F250 4x4 with a 292, 17,500+ original miles (it was owned by fire dept.) so I'm guessing it's original. I know that the air cleaner is black, the valve covers are blue, and the intake is red, and the oil filler tube and cap are black. I will clean it up a little and look at the rest in the daytime for you. I hope I have been a help.
