    1970 Body to Frame Shim Number Color

    I am getting ready to put the shim number marks on my chassis and wanted to verify the color to use. The 6th Edition Judging Guide shows green in Fig. Ch. 8.53, but I thought I had also seen white. I have a February 1970 car.

    Thanks,
    Allen

      Allen,

      My experience is that they are usually green. If I did see white shim markings I would not take a deduction if the car is believed to be original. The original grease pencils were supplied to all of GM from Duramark Corporation. Other places on the engine and chassis are green, yellow, white, and blue. Many years ago I was able to purchase some originals from Duramark. - Ron

                  So do aluminum heads, but that's another story for another time.
