It just has just got Early Chrysler Blue on the tin :D It may not be 100% correct for the year, but better than grease

Hi Wolfy,

That reminds me, I got some VHT Mopar 'blue' paint and thought it was late Chrysler blue in fact it was 'Turquiose' as it always used to be called.
Seems no-one 'can' be bothered to make Corporation Blue for 70 onwards resto Guys DoH!

Bought some 'Mopar made' Street Hemi Orange from a Mother Mopar Shop in LA ans its the worst 'Hemi Orange' I have seen yet. :D
Looks more like Hugger Orange LoL!!! :shock:
Back to the rather suspect 'Salmon Pink' Orange, also from VHT! :thumbright:

bacca.

Yes I know I spotted that one half way through :P My pump on mine is quite new so i will swap it over when it goes in. I might have to swap over the crank pulley to, the one on it look like it was a single groove jobby and someone welded a second one to it
