yarnall Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I'm having an EN 540 rebuilt for my father's B66. Does anybody know the paint color or code for that? Thanks.

Brocky Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 4 hours ago, Vladislav said: Robin? A Robin is a smaller wild bird here in North America. Often the first ones out in the Spring season. Their eggs have an unusual light blue color and thus many paints near that color are called Robin's egg blue. 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59221-en-540-color/#findComment-433144 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post eddeere Posted October 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2019 According to the information I received from the Mack Museum Mack #647 is the no. for the B model engine and trans. Nason DS138 is a close match. Looks Robin egg blue to me. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59221-en-540-color/#findComment-433160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZB755V8 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 That is the color that I remember all Mack engines were painted in the early 60's. My engine and trans are that same color in my B. Then came the silver, gold, red and a few blue engines in the late 60's, 70's and 80's. Almost forgot gray and black for Mack used in the 80's and 90's. Those colors are only for Mack engines not other manufactures engines available in a Mack. Hope the memory is correct. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59221-en-540-color/#findComment-433162 Share on other sites More sharing options...

james j neiweem Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Was that a good engine? How come the 707 never got used more except for fire service.? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59221-en-540-color/#findComment-433214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainCrutch Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 It's an engine that was overbuilt specifically for the fire service. Quote Who needs a back yard when you could have a Yard?!
