Case L paint question

Posted by carl in (mi) on February 21, 2012 at 10:33:08 from (24.231.151.33):

I have recently started a Case L restoration and my question concerns the color of which it should be painted. All or most of the pictures I find on the internet leads me to believe that the Case L’s were gray and mine is to or so I thought. While I was cleaning the paint off the hood I went through two layers of not original gray, they were different shades even and below these two coats was the old Case Orange and it actually had the decals on it.

I am wondering if it should be orange or if someone had repainted it orange, decals and all? I wouldn’t be questioning this if there weren’t so many pictures of these tractors painted Gray. I understand that the year it was made would make a difference but does anyone know what years the paint on these tractors changed from orange to gray?

I am thankful for any help or pointers;

Thanks again
