  There were NO rebuilt engines available through the Willys-Overland parts system. REPLACEMENT engines were painted red. Rebuilt engines available from many aftermarket sources could be any color, whatever the rebuilder wanted to use.

Ol' Red runs a Sears Roebuck rebuilt engine and has for the last 50 years. The color the rebuilder chose was a sort of metallic greenish blue. I have left it the way it came out of the shipping crate. The head was a Kaiser Supersonic head and originally used head bolts. I changed those bolts to studs when I had the head off in 2015 to check the condition of the valve seats.
