My 340's got the Blues...err Turquoise that is...
I've had 2 1969 340s. Both were turquoise. That engine Toolman Mike pictured appears to be the 383 big block turquoise on my phone. It's different from 69 340 color. I think Toolman Mike is right on the timeline too. Red in 68, and early 69. Turquoise in 69.
