I have an acquaintance that has a Farmall 200 that is showing some white paint thru the red paint on it. He also says that it has a very low serial number, maybe the 1st one built. I haven"t seen this tractor, but this is likely to be correct. He doesn"t appear to want to sell this tractor, but I wonder if the manufacture dates for the early Farmall 200 matches the dates for the white demonstrators?

No. The first 200s were built 4 years after the white demonstrators.

Adding a bit more to what Jim said, the demonstrators were made in early 1950 and the Farmall C (predecessor to the 200) was included in this program.
For what it's worth, the Farmall 200 serial numbers started with #501.

No way as the 200 came out replacing the C.
White demonstrators were made in the first quarter of 1950.
The 200 was manufactured from late 1954 through 1956.
Your friend's 200 missed the white demo program by almost 5 years. There is no way it could possibly be a white demo.
The paint might be a primer coat from a repaint. AFAIK, IH did not use primer.

To this day, IH and CaseIH tractors will show white under the red..........it's the primer bleeding thru.
