I have a 1944 H that was bought new in late 1944, and came on rubber. It was bought by a neighbor, who sold it at an auction where my Dad bought it in mid 46.
During the war there was a ceiling price and restrictions on their buying. I believe that you had to sign up to buy.
The day my Dad bought the tractor, the ceilings went off. He paid considerable more than the original price, but was happy to get the tractor.
It is still going strong.

I have seen some war year tractors, I believe 43, that had a red paint that faded into a dull near orange color.
