we just got home another project for spring. it is a mccormick #8 field cultivator on steel wheels. i would like to get the paint scheme correct if possible. wondering if anyone has restored one before or knows where to go to find what the colors should be on some of this older equipment. my guess is that itslate 20,s early 30,s. thanks for any help, steve

My grandpa had a No. 8. I have the owners manual. Its in black and white, so it will not help you with the paint scheme, but if you think this book will help in someway, i will be happy to scan and e-mail it to you.

Steve, you will need red ,blue and cream plus a bit of black. Basically the frame is all done in red, the teeth and their carriers are done in blue, the wheels are cream and the depth rods are black, the springs around the depth rods are red. I found disassembley the easiest, pull split pins and pins and set the sections of teeth aside. now you can clean, prime and paint the frame red. Likewise clean prime and paint the teeth arms and carriers blue. The flat rods used to set depth are done in black. All springs are red..depth springs and trip springs. I did an 8' on steel and a 6' on rubber with cream wheels/rims and they both look very good. Good luck with them...Mike in Exeter Ontario
