Does anyone know of a color that would be close to the original for a Kewanee 167 or 168 blade. Its a shade of yellow to gold. I would like to match it with something that might be close from tractor supply. It's hard to tell what the color really was from 50 years ago. Any help would be appreciated
168 blade
 
If I rember rite. those blades were more of a yellow than gold.No shine at all.Mite be a cross between J D yellow and Massey Harris yellow or a bit darker. clint
 

That looks like plain old equipment yellow. It looks to me the same as Woods equipment is painted.
 

If memory serves me correctly, I think the Kewanee yellow would be very close to the new, Caterpillar yellow. Or maybe industrial yellow.
 
Did not know Kewanee used any color except red. Only Kewanee equipment around was the disks. So did not know they even made blades.
 
Well I guess I did alright. I painted it caterpillar yellow not really knowing. The frame was all bent up and welded up many times. I cut off the frame just in front if where the blade rotates and started fresh. Figured I may as well paint it while I'm at it. I broke it last winter and finally got to it. Luckily we haven't had much snow and used the loader on the tractor instead.
