Great job on salvaging and upgrading this old truck. I always enjoy your Father's Day builds and this does complement the fire truck and fire station nicely.
Good piece of info to have. Although I wonder if it was a change that applied over a couple of years depending on the engine plant. My father had 1982 Mercury Cougar wagon (only car he ever bought new!) That came with the straight 6 and I distinctly remember the engine being blue. That is why I always think Ford engine blue! Although my mid-80's Taurus had a grey engine. Again thanks for the info.

Lovely Tribute Dan. Another great build.
Thank you!
Great build from an old project, it turned out really nice well done
Sometimes I feel like I'm seeking redemption when I restore a project I butchered in my younger years.
Nailed it Dan, nice tribute build 👍🏻🇦🇺
Glad you enjoyed it
