Commander 6000 was the latest version of the 6000. It did not come in a red version.
6000s came in both red and blue.
Ford officially changed the colors of its farm equipment line at the end of 1962. Most things built prior to then were red. Most after were blue. The 6000 was no exception.
George's opinion about the SOS is not held by all of us. Some of us will not have a Ford tractor of that vintage unless it is equipped with an SOS. We believe they (especially the blue ones) are about as bullet proof as one can get from that era.
Edit: I should add that the Commander 6000 and the blue 6000 , unless it is a repainted red one, will have the better transmission. The red one may have also, if it's been updated.
