Re: Original 1963 c10, 10kmi
Nice! Looks like even though the paint has thinned a bunch, it did not lose all it's color. Obviously, it was not pampered, but I'm guessing it was stored indoors the whole time.

Re: Original 1963 c10, 10kmi
Do you think it's possible that some were just blue and some were just black from the get go? I have a hard time picturing the blue ones some how changing to black. Seems like distinctly different colors from the factory.

Re: Original 1963 c10, 10kmi
That sounds logical. I guess I haven't researched it enough but all I ever seem to see are blue ones being reproduced.

Not to Highjack but I have an original 63 230 I pulled out sitting in the basement now. I got truck from Grandad when He died, He was original owner and it was 100% when I got it in 1980. It's greasy but has the factory color. What are Y'all looking for as color goes? |

Re: Original 1963 c10, 10kmi
Ideally, someone planning on rebuilding and repainting an original engine with very well preserved original paint on the valve covers, gets the color scanned and receives a formula from a paint shop, and shares the info with us, so we don't have to use off the shelf colors in the restoration process. The blueish greenish turquioseish 230-250 is a tough one!

Re: Original 1963 c10, 10kmi
That's not even close to being a true statement.

Re: Original 1963 c10, 10kmi
Jealous! I used to live in CO, I guarantee that thing is rust free. The western slope is a nice, dry climate for something like that to sit for that long. Congrats on snagging that one!
