I have an old Ford sales brochure from the late fifties after the XX1s came out. It uses actual color photographs instead of the "colorized" black and whites of a few years earlier. It shows the red shroud, with the black core just behind it. In order to decide what color to paint things, if you want it to be original, you need to think of the assembly line process. Most tractors were assembled except for wheels and tires, seat, radiator and hoses, sheet metal with gauges, wiring, carburetor and throttle/governor linkages.
