Paint Help

[Deepfork 0]

Sorry if my questin seems basic I am brand new to these tractors. What is the correct original paint scheme for my 83 GT 1642? I have read post and think I saw a chart that said the base color was a pewter/grey. Does not seem like any of the ones I have seen are that color. I already have a decal set ordered but want to make sure I have the paint right before they go on. Thanks!!

The paint you got looks pretty good (saw it in your other "Introduction" post). Originally the grill should be black (semi-gloss black I believe), the rims white, and the original decals installed. Other than that you're pretty close as it is.

Decals for the machine can be had here: http://www.redoyourhorse.com/servlet/the-1...ECAL-SET/Detail

Here's a shot of TT's similar GT-1848:
