The most beautiful tractors ever built were the Cockshutt 30s and 40s. Superb styling and their color combo with the Red and Cream was tops.
Next in line styling wise were the Ollies with the side curtains. A 60 comes to mind. But their Green/Yellow and Red wheels was not so hot in the color department.
