Need opinions on color of backhoe.

[ken6x6]

As most may know, I just got my 1772 back in shape again, iron rear, new paint and decals, etc., and now the backhoe that will be going on. Tt is red with black buckets and cylinders. I need help deciding if I should keep the red or should I paint it a different color? Here's a pic of it how it is now on the 1872. Let me hear what you think!

I like it as it is.

I'd paint it yellow. Just my opinion.

I want a back hoe for my cub ! No matter what the color (except for JD green) that is a hot looking set up but if your going to paint it I agree with J-Mech, yellow would look good.

Yellow would look good; however, I've found that it's never quite the same after you paint it as DIY paint doesn't stick as great as factory paint.

Then you don't know how to paint. Factory paint sucks. There is a lot of paint out there that is truly awesome! If you know how, it lasts way longer.

I say leave it as it is. I wouldn't care what color it was as long as it was scooping dirt out of a hole insted of me and my back! I've dug a heck of alot of ditches and holes by hand in my life and sure don't wanna dig anymore.

I am thinking something alone the pastel line. J/K it looks good as it is.
