White smoke to me means you have engine coolant leaking into a cylinder of your engine. The reason it may only smoke when cold is that as your engine warms up parts expand and maybe sealing your leak some. You may not see water in the oil it all depends on how bad a leak you have. Besides when you have water in the oil you are in danger of harming your bearings and such so this is a good thing. I would pull the spark plug and check for a green tint on the electrode of the plugs or signs of coolant on the plugs. this can help identify which cylinder is leaking.
Welcome to the sight!

He has one bad 67 Pro Street that he completely built himself and is one of the nicest and helpful guy you'll ever going to meet. Rick, I am counting down the days to Ocean City, I SO can't wait. Dave, well.....he is full of hot air and likes to chat. . ;D
