	It is "supposed" to be silver. It's not a real bright irridescent silver like Hi-temp aluminum paint. It actually has a purplish-grey cast to it. Here's a good webpage of what it should look like...

	Howdy again fellers, My second question today (are we allowed more than one per day? G) is about the proper engine color for Wilber the '57 Transtar. Weather permiting, Sat. I'm heading over to pick up a rebuilt 259 for him and would llike it to be the correct color BEFORE I put it in. All the lillistrations I've seen, shows what appears to be an orangeish red color. Some how, that dosen't seem right. Anyone of y'all know for sure what color the '57 truck engines are suposed to be? Thanks, Glenn

	One of my rust bucket Hoosier parts trucks is a 3E38 with 56K miles(2ton formerly a dump truck) and the engine is black. Course its had at least 4 owners I know of. 62V 15210 wrote:> Howdy again fellers,> My second question today (are we allowed more than one per day?

	Per Fred Foxes article on 57-58 3E series Transtars Vol 27 # 12 "Most times truck engines were painted the same colors as Studebaker car engines. For most of 1957, Studebaker engines were painted Turquoise (O'Brien's 5003 - MAD Turquoise High Intensity Engine Enamel) with black valve covers and black air cleaner cannisters. The oil pan and radiator fan were either Turquoise or black. The oil filler cap and most electrical compounds were black. Late in the 1957 model year, Studebaker replaced the Turquiose paint with silver-gray color." If you get a good current paint number for the Turquiose color please let us know, I will need it for my 2E38, also with a 259, but also a 4 BBL and a 5 spd direct. Stude_1ton

	I can give you the original Studebaker code for O'Brien's 5003 Turquoise if that will help.

	Thanks 1ton, I thought they were turquoise and black like the cars, but was not sure. If anyone would know for sure, it would be Fred Fox.
