1974 long tractor paint code

shara jenkins · Oct 5, 2011

A friend of mine has a 1974 long tractor 350, and is wanting to restore to original color, but don't know the paint color code. Does anyone know? Thanks.
The serial number is 596930 if that helps.

Don't recall Long ever publicising a paint code. In fact, they used to tell us at Long dealer meetings that you could get 5 different shades of blue out of 1 spray can.
He could take a part off the tractor that has good paint on it to a paint shop and have them mix to match.

I have a 1976 Long 900 that I redid and painted and the only paint I could find that was very very close is Rust-Oleum Sail Blue. I know most people dont think much of it, But I clear coated it and keep it waxed and clean and in the barn when its not being used. I just cant see $450 for paint for a tractor. All the paint on this tractor is Rust-Oleum and I like the way it turned out. Just my $.02 Bandit

Ford Blue is pretty close and I've seen a couple different shades of blue on Longs anyway
