You probably want to stay away from the engine/chassis picture in the sales brochure. The art department painted that thing as gaudily as possible in order to point out the various features.

Lots of folks on the forum have this documented and they will chime in.

The "COLOR" you are looking for is Olive Green, Studebaker Green, Bell Telephone, or Packard Green.
The entire Engine, Clutch Housing and Trans. were Olive, except the "Accessories" you see in the Pic.

This is a '51 with a different Air Cleaner than '53, a Wrong Oil Cap & Color, but a good view of the correct Engine Color.
