Typically it means either a leaking valve or bad rings. You need to pull the heads and see which it is. Cold Cranking numbers like that on an FE are indications of trouble. It indicates low compression of course, but compression ratio is more likely calculated, not measured.

1964 1/2 - 1965 / 1964.5 Medium Blue interior color????
« Last post by Corey Bowcutt on Today at 01:49:38 PM »
I am restoring the interior of my 1964.5 convertible.  The TRIM code is 82 which is Blue Vinyl.  (It appears the trim code went to 22 in 65?)  They call the paint Medium Blue Poly Ford code M1821G which converts to PPG 12989, DuPont 9135, RM BASF 5747.  I purchased a rattle can from NPD labeled Medium Blue Metallic for interior metal and rigid parts P/N AP-5747.  The 5747 jived with the RM BASF 5747 number so I thought I was on the right track.

I received the paint and sprayed it out on a piece of scrap metal.  It is a very pretty color but does not match my interior at all.

A few questions:

1) Is the interior blue paint supposed to be metallic?  I do not believe see metallic in my interior painted metal pieces.
2) Has anyone had any luck matching the medium blue poly paint on the interior of their car?
3) What does "Poly" mean in the Medium Blue Poly. description?

Thank you,
Corey

Thanks guys! I'm going to start welding up some holes.
Depending on how good a welder you are, consider using "JB Weld" on the smaller holes. I also used Bondo on my dash installing a "radio repair panel". My "welds" of the panel warped the dash.
