Default Re: Color coding NOS SHP parts

[ QUOTE ]
not exactly ...

the parts are color coded by application

ie "pink" rods, those were the special performance ones

the colors differentiated the applications, ie HD, performance, passenger, etc

When I worked at Pontiac in the very early 70's all the "good" stuff carried purple dabs

I think what you just said is what I what myself and the other guy said, certain models got certain colors.

I ran packout for many years and each front pump that left the dept had a green mark that I had to put on it. Afternoons used yellow. This is still done today. An automatic transmission will have a ton of paint marks inside it.
