Color of Case plows

[tractorguy2]

I would like to paint this toy plow I made Case colors from the late 50's. I know the frame was Flambeau red. What color where the rims? Any green parts on late 50's plows? I made this plow from three. The main plow is a four bottom Tru Scale. The tail wheel parts are McCormick Deering. And the hydraulic lift parts are from a 2 bottom John deere.

If I remember correctly and I'm sure there are still some originals out there. The wheels and the adjustment handles were green.

The wheels on the Centennial models was almost Euclid green with a splash of yellow mixed in,, I have a wheel off one of mine and can see the paint that was behind the hub,,

This water colored lit is not accurate,, they wheel hs more yellow than this pic shows,,

Maybe this will help. This is my Case Centennial plow from SpecCast. I wasn't sure if the color was correct either, that it should've been darker green and not almost neon like it is in my pic and the pic Case Nutty posted.

that is the wrong color the levers and axles are Dark CASE Wheel green the wheels are like I stated

I thought the green was darker as well, CN. I guess I'll have to find the darker shade as well or see if SpecCast can repaint it, but I doubt it. Wasn't there an older post about the paint colors for Case implements? It listed the manufacturer and paint code for power white/red, desert sunset/flambeau red, gray for older tractor models and the green for implements.

I found this Case plow listed on an upcoming auction. It's still got some of the green and flambeau red paint on it.

The front axles and adjusting levers are a darker green, Rustolium hunter green or new JD green is close, the frame is red in the beginning and transitioned to orange over time, the wheels are close to Euclid green as mentioned the rolling coulters are black, the backs of the moldboards can be red or the dark green.
