The l'il doohickey thingies look to be dual block heater cords to me.....
Yep, it's a bright yellow with a black vinyl top.
Original color? Who knows? It sure isn't painted it now though.
If that's what the o.p. is asking.
yep, trust americans not to know what block heaters are.
Naw I'm interested in the colour on it now, the original is a nasty beige that I would never paint anything in my life. I'll show it to ya, still on the bottom of the trunk.
Ford yeller eh? I'll check it, too bad it's a ford colour.
