Hello,
I did a search and couldn"t come up with the answer, so hopefully someone will know. We just purchased a 1958 Dexta with a gas engine. There"s been alot of discussion on the Super, PM, etc but few on the standard Dexta and none with the gas engine. I"d like to find out what colors this should have been (it"s now surface rust with a little light blue on the hood) and if possible, find some sources for the paint.

Thanks in advance!
Mike

Hi Mike;
ALL Fordsons built from 1952 to 1963 were standard Fordson colours EMPIRE BLUE with ORANGE wheels. Empire Blue should be available from lots of sources in US, the nearest orange is Howard Rotovator colour.
Grill colours are always in debate in England, some say orange, some say blue.
The only colour variation are the 1963-65 New Performance models which were sold in the US as Super Dexta 2000 & Super Major 5000 with lighter blue body with cream hood, fenders & wheels.
