This is the first time I have every done anything in these "colors". But old iron is old iron to me. 1966 John Deere 110H. Same as my Grandfathers.

Nice! My father did his 1972 last year. I think it was called a patio tractor? He bought it new, its yellow and cream color no green that year. Wish I had a picture of it.

I agree that "old iron is old iron" and that is one darn fine lookin machine.

Nice, I worn one of those slap arse out several times it went thru several engine rebuilds...

Beautifully done! It looks like you found the older JD green paint too!

Farmer Dan, yes, they were called patio tractors.
They came in blue, red, yellow and orange over cream/white.
I think they were the same as the green and yellow ones other than paint.

Thanks for the nice comments guys. It really came out good.

Royse finding the right green took some time. It is PPG paint and all the numbers they had were too light and IMHO even the Classic JD paint is too light. I found a very old reference and asked the PPG folks to use that number and it is bang on to what the older color was. I don't have it handy, but if anyone wants it I will get it and post it.
