Thanks,
I used Valspar Restoration Series Paint - with the hardener.
I've painted a bunch of Fords over the last 5 or 6 years - mostly for my buddy Ken. Used the same Valspar on all of them - Red, Gray, Blue and Buff (yellow).
But now I hear they've discontinued making it.
So now i don't know what we'll do for paint.
Hate to spend big bucks for paint despite what the purists say.
We had really good luck with this.
What year is your tractor? Does it have the early tin or later tin.
This one is a 73 by the serial # but I like the old style tin so I put it on this.
I put early tin on my 3000 too.
Here's that same photo as on my logo - little bigger.
