Ihave a vac serial number 52770252. My dad bought it in 1969 from a retiring neighbor.The tractor is orange with case yellow on the hood,side panels and fenders.As far as Ican tell it has never been repainted.Is this the correct colors for a vac?

I think some of the Case dealers may have painted the trade-in Vac's in the current colors(two Tone) before they were re-sold. I think they look better with the dersert sunset and flambue contrast.

So the question of paint colors is resolved but is there really 8 digits in your serial nr?

The serial number makes yours a 1948 model, like mine. The correct color is Flambeau Red with silver rims and black starter, distributor and lights. The two-tone scheme didn't arrive until the introduction of the 400 series, about 1955.

After the two-tone scheme appeared some dealers repainted Flambeau trade-ins, just as they had repainted gray-and-red trade-ins after Flambeau Red was introduced.

I believe it should be Flambeau Red, not yellow. Mine is a '48 model as well and it was yellow. I just repainted it to the correct color.

Well dwightiowa your Case Vac is the same color as my Case Vac 14 1953 model. Was your serial number tag paint also? Mine was orange.

Mike I am not saying you are wrong about the color because I think you are right. But it was strange that his tractor had some of the same colors as mine.
