I'm merely answering to the "correct" color asked often on this forum. The original IH red (not the varnish type red that was on some of the old tractor's wheels, etc) started in Nov 1936, I believe and was changed in 1949, 1958, and 1961, plus another change or two in the 80's I think. Every paint company, including Valspar that currently supplies IH 2150 for CaseIH, has their own versions of one or more of these colors -- they all differ to some degree, even within a single "official" IH color code, not to mention the old alkyd enamels produced by BPS/Tractor Supply, and Van Sickle, etc. Thus all the different opinions as to what the correct color is, along with all the shades of red you have noticed.
