    It was just a blue that napa had I wanted to paint it blue for something different.
    When I bought the truck two years ago it always wanted to pop out of direct. Then last month I was on the mass pike going west and it started to super growl. I stopped to look over a few things and decided to run it home to get the tow bill as low as possible. All I had left was direct in high and low. When I got the clutch off it was evident tha the monkey that drove it before I bought it had beat the hell out of it because there was springs loose inside. So as it seems I should have tore it apart before it grenaded. Might have been cheaper.
