I'm not so sure that they were always painted the same. I remember 3 of them from my misspent youth. The oldest was on steel, and I'm pretty sure was all red. I have no way of knowing if this one was original, but this was back in the mid 60's when the word "restoration" wasn't in the dictionatary yet, and nobody would ever think of repainting a tractor, let alone a plow. It had sat in a barn for many years after the original owner died. The second my Dad bought new in the mid 40's, and I remember that as all red, too. I'm pretty sure the wheels were red, and I'm real sure the tail wheel mechanism wasn't blue, like in the pictures above. The third was bought by my uncle in the mid 50's, and that one was tri-colored. I clearly remember how snazzy that looked new. It had the trash boards on the ends of the moldboards too. So there's a little more fuel for the fire.
