We, I anyway, don't see any pictures but you probably aren't posting them the right way. You just can't attach without using the proper URL protocol. I'm partial to the FORD Vermillion (RED) and FORD Medium Grey paint scheme over the Empire Blue and Off White of the 60's and later, but, to each his own. When FORD released the 8N in 1947 with the new Vermillion & MED Grey, dealers were advised to paint their remaining 2N inventory with the same 8N colors so prospective customers might buy one thinking they were getting a new model. When the Thousand Series models came out in '62, a dealer AD offered Hundred Series owners to take their tractors in and get cleaned and painted with the new blue and off-white scheme. You see many FORD Tractors painted in non-original paint schemes. Heck, in the early 1960's my uncles painted the (their dad, my grandpa) family early 1939 9N Blue and Off-White, skipping right over the red and med grey. they also had an 8N too, bought new in '51.
I own the early 9N and is in restoration mode.
