chop Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Hi everyone! New here on this forum with a '41 Dodge sedan. I bought the car about 2 years ago, got it running then traded it to a friend of mine for a '62 Mercury wagon. A few months ago he said he wanted to get something different so I traded my '54 Chevy to him and got my Dodge back. I've already done the floor pans, all new brakes and rebuilt the motor with a few hop-up parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40plyrod Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Looks like a good project. Nicely detailed motor, is the firewall a stock dodge blue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCurrent Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Welcome to the group! Looks like a decent car. I like the color on the motor. It's a little more pleasing than silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chop Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Thanks! The color on the firewall is really close to the original regimental blue, just a hair darker but barely enough to be noticeable. I thought silver was kind of a boring color for an engine so I went with 60's Pontiac blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobT-47P15 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Your motor does indeed look nice. I once had a 60 Pontiac with that blue color......thought it looked familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randroid Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 chop, Indeed, welcome! Portland is one of my favorite cities; I went to PSU and owned a house across the Banfield from Providence hospital. Commenting on the engine color, that's what I painted mine and there's at least one other person here with that color block. When I painted it I called it Seafoam Green, which was an accent color on a '61 Chevy we had when I was young. I've always liked it but it was a stock GM color so I can only imagine it made the rounds through most of their brands under a number of names. -Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
