The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Hi all restoring a 1956 Fordson major and needing to know what colour to paint the front grills as I have seen some orange and some blue and the later ones in white?

Hi
This is a sore subject here on the forum, so take this answer and
The grills on your tractor should be blue none of them where ever orange, according to our guy that worked on them from new ( Brian). The grills on powers where supposed to be silver and I assume on the blue orange super as well, and on the last super they where The same color as the wheels/fenders .
Regards Robert

Some of us guys paint them Orange because we think they look better. I have a can of Silver paint ready to correct my Power Major someday if I ever get the ambition. After all, it is only a little paint. Dandy Dave!

What he said ^

Hi Guys
All I Did was answer the question that was asked, If the guy decides to paint them orange that's his choice as it is yours and mine with what i do . so good luck with the grill painting And maybe just don't show Brian the pictures if they happen to come out an orange shade of blue
Regards Robert
