So far my research only indicates the yellow and white ones. Maybe someone painted yours red and another PO repainted it back. The only red color I know of is inside the rear end.

When I wire wheeled mine down I had the same red as well as green as primers on the rear end. Not sure what IH used for primers back then; I dunno if that is original or a PO paint job. :bigthink:

I assume you are talking about my Sig Picture, that is not my O just a nice looking one, but I am not sure. I think it was white originally on all of them, but not sure, I personally think it looks better white than Yellow.

I just striped the trans on my o and it was red as well. Looks to be a good primer they used originally.

The Cub Original was NEVER painted red from the factory. The red seen in the "cast iron" parts is this.....Glyptal

It was used as a sealer / primer.
