Dave,
I talked to my Uncle about ewelahlah. He couldn't recall VIN or casting 
numbers but said that they all were color coded according to the HP of the 
truck.  Blue was the lowest HP (150?), next green (175?), then yellow (200?) 
and finally red (250?).  If one is chromed then the only way to tell the HP 
of the truck is to kick the right front tire with your left foot all the 
while holding your tongue out of the right side of your mouth.  Count the 
throbs in your foot for 5 seconds and multiply by 15 to obtain the correct 
HP.

Hey - What's this Y2K thing that everyone is talking about?

Durwood
