Title: paint scheme
Post by: kevinwith1n on December 10, 2014, 04:58:16 PM
hey my 16 year old (and me) bought a 1941 9n at an auction. he just wanted something to work on (since this one don't run).
when we started doing some research on the 9n, one of the first things we noticed is alot of the pictures labeled as 9n's have the red underside.
however all the specs i've been able to find say that the 9n's were only manufactured and painted gray.
so my question, did any of the 1941 9n tractors come from the factory with red underside?
thanks in advance,
kevin

No, only gray in the true Henry Ford tradition, his firsts of anything were only one color.  "You can have any color Model T, as long as it is Black".
