I am looking at a yblock , in mid 50's  car , the engine is yellow  , looks like it has been changed out , is it a later truck color ?

Yes.56’s we’re yellow for sure.

Any idea why 56 truck engines were yellow? 55-57 Tbirds are Ford Red.

Likely to differentiate the engines because the ancillary pieces were often for trucks only...

54 Fords (cars) had a yellowish  color.  55-57 had a red/orange.  Beyond that I have no idea.  Trucks ere different.  Merc's were different..  No idea on those either.
