Just wanted something (odd) we have IH on the farm and the color was always my favorite. We had a farmal super c, w-9, farmal m and super m and still have the IH 856 and 1086 so I guess to answer your question, just seems like the thing to do!
And I always wanted an IH red lawn tractor, I know it's not the same as a (real) one, but it will be fine for me. And it's not like it's a big collector tractor or anything, so why not?
