Implement Colors?
Just a quick historical question - Why are some of the Cub implements painted blue instead of Farmall Red?

I believe blue was used as a selling point in that they made the matched implements look good hanging on a Cub.

I think it had more to do with year than origination. When I was deciding on what colors for my hand lift on Missy one of the members found the Ih paint decisions on colors. The hand lift origianlly came off my 48 and blue was the correct color, but Missy was a mid 49 and was bordreline on when they made the change. I decided to go with blue, since I like the looks.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!

Cub Implements were Blue, Red, IH "polar bear white", white, yellow and combinations of most of them.
Many of the implements cam in a range of colors depending on year etc....
I know I confused this even further.

Older F/H plows were Red/Blue, and later ones were creame/black. my disk was red and rust(mostly rust), now cream/black as is my moldboard. All other impliments will be painted that way because I like it that way. Makes them look like late model equipment.
