Roger: Correct paint scheme for American Fordson Model F is: Fordson gray: Entire body, fenders, fuel tank. Red: Wheels Black: Seat, seat spring, tool box, coil box, all control rods, linkages, steering wheel, crank handle, fan, carburetor, manifold. As for the paint itself, you can have the correct colors custom-mixed: All the following are DITZLER paint numbers that any DITZLER dealer can work with, other companies could cross the numbers. All colors are accurate reproductions, these are correct. This will mix one quart of grey paint: DMR 475-12 440-26 486-74 491-278 400-398 490-418 DXR 495-438 DMR 499-1074 This will mix one quart of red paint:
DMR 401-20 406-180 405-648 DXR 495-668 DMR 499-1144
You can buy pre-mixed paint by the gallon from The Fordson House in Escanaba, Michigan, but they charge $80/gallon for Fordson Red, $34/gallon for Fordson Gray, and $42/gallon for Black.
Hope this helps. -- Maine Fordson
