Richmond Hopper Paint Colors

Postby Brandon Webb » Mon Jul 28, 2014 7:47 pm

Working on restoring a Richmond Hopper, looking for paint for the base parts and tins. I red oxide primered the base and it's close to an original I have but the original color is more of a orange. Also needing paint for the tins, below is a picture of the inside of a lid I have. I also need a source for the original McCormick decals mine had a black background. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Brandon, I can't help you with the colors, but have you checked with both TM Tractor and tst (Tim Talleur) for the decals?

ACE Hardware has International BLUE which is the correct color. I restored my Richmond hopper with it, I liked the way it came out.
TST has the decal you need.

Brandon:
tst is his CUB member's name. If you can't contact him I can PM you his information. He has the decals you want.

I would bet that the bottom was originally IH Red, and years of weathering has given it's current finish and shade.
