Correct Dearborn paint color?

[WJD]

What is the correct (original) paint color for a Dearborn disk? This company was owned by Henry Ford.

I have seen them painted blue but think this is incorrrect from an original standpoint.

Thanks in advance,

Bill.

Dearborn should be Red - the same color red as the tractors they came with from 1948 to about 1955

Thanks, red was what I thought. I've seen then them painted Ford blue but it just did not seen right.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Bill.

As UD said, same color as the tractors: red.

I use Rustoleum Sunrise Red for implements.

Rustoleum safety red [k7764] matches up real well to the correct ford color. I'm not sure how close to sunrise red it is. I bought a gal. from Lowes and saved at lot compared to TSC's paint prices.
