cleaning advise

Posted by J R ole farm boy on October 21, 2003 at 11:51:36 from (199.190.8.11):

I am in the very beginning stages of cleaning my just purchased 1949 Farmall Cub, complete set of culivators, complete fertilizer distributor and a modified one row "COLE" corn planter. My question is how is the best way to do the basic cleaning of dirt and normal grease and oil in preparation before painting. Are there any special cleaning agents that can make the cleaning process a little less painful. I want to restore as close to orignial as possible. Another question, does anyone know what the color of the culivators were in 1949/1950? Best that I can remember is that the bars that holds the culivator feet were blue and the feet were red.

Any suggestions and ideas appreciated.
