Is the water pump engine color or cast iron on a 1964 Impala with 283?

Thanks, Gene,Jon and Mike. The other alternator brackets were black. My son and I are restoring a 64 IMPALA SS that had 38000 miles and much of the car had not been touched. It is a strange SS. 283, 3 spd with od. No ps.pb or ac, single speed wiper, no washers. The only accessory is a radio and rear speaker. Since he lives in Atlanta, we are adding ac,ps,pb. Thanks for the info

Are there any VCCA members in the Atlanta area? My son is a retired VOYA executive and has limited car knowledge. But he is learning a lot . Also, is there a VCCA roster? As a long time CORVAIR CORSA member, I used our roster often.

There are quite a few VCCA members in the Atlanta area. The local region is Heart of Georgia. If you go to the main page you can get the directors info or give me a call and I will try and help get him pointed in the right direction. 770-557-2744. Due to the volume of spam calls he may have to leave a message.
