Mine is Ford blue but it has been rebuilt so I don't know
what the original color was. Some of the cars were kits so the donor
engine could have been any color. Check with Rory at MHS to get the
history on your car.

3M 5463. Although someone painted the top of the engine Ford blue,
the rest of the block (and under the "new" blue) is black. Can anyone
tell me if the V6 engines left Marcos all black? Or, because of the
history of this car, is it black based on the fact that this was a
replacement engine from Ford of England immediately after it was
delivered to the U.S.?
Thanks,
