M.F. 50 Paint Colors

Brian l · Jan 15, 2016

I am getting ready to paint a Massey Harris 50 and want to get correct colors on everything. I know basics but am wondering about details such as starter,generator, and power steering pump. I have seen them
black and some are same color as chassis . Any ideas will be appreciated.

When these tractors were being built...the chassis was completed, starter, generator and rad all fitted before going to the paint booth...so everything was gold...then the electris and sheet metal were fitted with zinc plated fasteners....Although the generator is black in one of my photos the rest of the tractors look correct.....hope that helps...Sam

He asked about a Massey Harris 50 not a Massey Ferguson. Same tractor, but
painted different.

The subject title "M.F. 50 Paint Colors" threw me off. The Bronze on the M.H. 50 looks good.

Sorry my title was wrong it should have been M.H. 50 thanks for feedback hope to get even more ideas

I have to agree with Samn40, that the starter, generator, etc would have pained bronze when new. A black starter, or generator, etc looks out of place to me.
