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.
The ugliest tractors ever built were the some of the MMs. They might have been good tractors but their styling was awful and their anemic yellow/sick red color made you want to puke.
Not sure of the models but even the Soviets during the cold war built more handsome machines.
Tops in the cute category were the Allis Bs.
Honorable mention in that department were the Ford Ns.
Neither manufacturer ever made a particularly good looking tractor again.
Worst ever in the color department were RED/White/Black IHs.
Great machines but
Same colors as in the Nazi flag. What were they thinking??
No other brands were particularly splendid or awful.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the light green on green of the late Ollies was very nice.
