Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
That is a great color and a great looking tractor.
Nothing against red, but I do like all the other colors that governments seem to paint their equipment. Orange, yellow, gray, etc.

Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
Looks like Allis Chalmers Persian Orange to me, can't tell if it's PO 1 or PO 2. There is a safety orange rattle can that is a close match. I used it to paint an Allis B. If you need the exact informatin send me a PM. Stan

Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
Not sure who it belongs to, but if you can tell us what album it was in on the photohost we might be able to track it.
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
I may have pictures of the same tractor. I can't tell you whose tractor it is. But I think it is red and just looks orange in the picture. The picture was taken at Cubarama, I'll say about 2005. I think Rudi's color table (linked from his manuals page) has an entry for Harvester Orange.
I just checked Rudi's color table. He has #1211 listed as orange for implements, which implements I don't know. He has #90 as orange for trucks. My records show #90 as Harvester Highway Orange (as of 1940). I would expect #90 to have been used on highway mowers. Rudi's chart doesn't have crossovers for either color.

Bigdog took the picture in 2005. Perhaps he can fill us in with more detail.

Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
If you decide to go with Kubota orange, there are 2 of them. Earlier Kubota was called Kubota Bright Orange, about 1990 they changed to the brighter Kubota Bright Orange II. You probably want the later color.

Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
The color I tested was the kubota orange 2. It's a nice color.

Re: Orange lo boy highway mower
Yes, that's the prettier of the two.
Also, the Kubota paints are a good quality acrylic enamel.
