All just according to time, how the tractor was kept (shedded or outdoor) and whether the older Hs and Ms and the like might have been repainted along the line.
My SuperC was shedded for he first fifty-five years and was a rosy pink from fading, with the clear on the decals turned white. In the few years she's had to set out, she's taken a different tone, though a long way still from the familiar brownish hue you describe.
Only difference, but its would be limited that I can think of showed up on my '47 BN, which came into the family when new. There was a spell somewhere in the '46-'48 timeframe when there was a strike at IH's paint supplier (or one of them) and there was a shortage of the pigments for the usual mix to make their red. They went to a different mix of pigments to get the same color, and those tractors faded to to something more like an Allis Chalmers rusty orange. But it was for, I'm pretty sure, a stretch of less than a year.
