The white on the Cub Cadets were indeed unique to the year (both hood and wheels) and there were three versions of white used:
IH 901; from start to 11/1967, to serial # 218,009 on the ORIG, 70, 100, 71, 102, 122 &123
IH 902; 11/1967 to 2/1971, serial # 218,010 to 375,938 on 72, 104, 105, 124, 125, 73, 106, 107, 126, 127, 147.
IH 935; 2/1971 to PRESENT serial # 375,939 TO PRESENT 73, 106, 107, 126, 127, 147, 86, 108, 109, 128, 129, 149, 169, 800, 1000, 1200, 1250, 1450, 1650.
The different colors by themselves do not appear that different, but looking at three correctly painted Cub Cadets in a row it is quite evident.
I think the IH implement color would match the year it was produced, but not sure there. So to answer your question, one color on the tractor and potentially another shade on the implement, but may not be.
Hope that helps,
