Re: correct engine color for RB 62 dart

["Gary H." <spigot2039@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Generally, no. Blue -- NOT turquoise -- was used in 1970's engines. 

In 1962 the V8 poly was red (not the red Mopar sells in rattle cans now) and the big blocks were turquoise: EXCEPT the orange 413 max wedges.

Thanks,
Gary H.
