What color is that ? It looks to be greenish , Teal ? I thought the early Jeep engines were a light silvery/blue something or other. Its purdy. Hope it runs well for you. Got a complete 360 if it dont. Good luck. FjR68

I tried to color match...part of the flex plate still had some factory over-spray..Allied mixed it too green, so we did some tweaking in the shop(added some silver) to get it a little closer. Now I'm freshening up the engine bay 'cause it just seems wrong to put a clean motor in a nasty engine bay without making a little effort to clean things up.

Glad to hear Joe, the Bullnose has reminded me of the Bronco quite a bit. Glad she is in good hands!
