Ford 3000-4000 fender/wheel color 1970

Cape Fear Scot · Jun 2, 2020

Hey friends- I'm fixing up my 1970 4000 SU, and I've bought new fender skins for it. Do any of you know what the correct paint color name (or code) is in the Tractor Supply Co. line? I'd like to get something very close to the original color, which I remember being an off-white.

I'll need to paint the wheels too, eventually. I'm doing it in bite-sized pieces.

Off subject question but I wonder if you can send me a picture
of the front end of this tractor. I have a 69 4000 that has a SU
decal but I think it’s just a regular tractor from what I’ve read
here. [email protected]. Thanks sir.

4000SU has a radius rod front axle with steering arms and linkage on both sides of the tractor like the 2000 and 3000. A regular 3 cylinder 4000 has no radius rods and steering arm and linkage only on the left side and a link under the nose of the tractor connecting the left and right spindles.

It's at TSC and listed as Ford Light Grey.......looks like dirty white.
