Short answer is yes. Ford and New Holland come to mind. What brand of tractor are we talking about? Maybe someone liked blue or had it custom painted at the factory!!

Since this is posted in the Cub forum I will assume we are talking about a Cub. Quite possibly it is a retired Air Force tractor that someone repainted.
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Have decided it must have been owned by the University.of Illinois - has some residue of orange on the wheel discs! Yes, it is a cub. Thanks.

Probably so, since blue and orange are their colors.
