Does anyone know what colour should the front grilles in FMD -55 be? Someone suggested that they should be blue. Is this true? I've also seen pictures where they are painted orange.

I also would want to know what colour the "Fordson Major Diesel" sings on the sides of the bonnet should be. The tractor has been re-painted earlier and the sings were also painted blue. I had always assumed that they should be chrome color but when I scraped the blue paint off I could see some traces of orange in it. The orange is in the area of the underlinigns under the words "Fordson" and "Major". So, are they blue, orange or chrome or perhaps some of the previous with orange underlinings?

Thanks in advance.

I donīt know the original color, mine were painted red before (not original paint), but when i scraped the red paint off, i saw blue color which seemed to be the original factory paint.
So i, as i restored my FMD, painted the grilles blue.
The signs should be chrome, with red underlines, this i know for sure.

happy painting
FMD

Thank you for the answer.

Does anyone know where I could find a picture of the sings so I could paint them correctly?
