Engine Paint???

Which engine parts are painted and what color? (I know old ford blue) I've heard black on pullys ect. What I could really use is a pic of an acurately restored 67 Ranger or from an old brocure if anyone has or knows where I can get one. Thanks in advance!

what is your engine, i think different engines were different in color, i believe the 352 was originally red, the thunderbird 390's were gold, and most others were ford blue.

It's a 390 ci. My valve covers still have the original old ford blue. Its the original engine and I want to restore it to it's original condition eventually. Except maybe the oversized rear tires, I think they look kind of cool! Check out my gallery if you want. I apologize in advance for the poor pic quality

If you can find a copy of How to Restore your Mustang,
ISBN#0-941596-01-X

Section 6-14 near the back has the colours listed for each component.

Good luck with your search.
