23d Landlord HELP

[JDSnyder]

Paul, I just did a complete restoration on a 1965 Landlord over the winter. I bought premixed and inexpensive tractor paint from Quality Farm. I mixed 4 parts Allis Chalmers orange to one part IH red and got real close to the Simplicity orange that was unfaded on mine like between where parts joined together. Is yours the black or cream trim? I did cream with a black upper grille just to be different and because I thought it looked nice. I just got pictures of mine developed and as soon as I figure out how to send them to Kent I will to see if he'll post them in the gallery. If you need the Simplicity logos for the hood or side panel or for the implements, I had them recreated by a friend who runs a sign company. Just email me and I'll give you a contact if you want. The art work is already done so they can be bought cheap. Good Luck - Jeff

I am restoring a 1965 landlord and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a photo of the orignal colors or if someone could tell me ??

Here's a pic of a '64. I think the black paint was white in '66. The '65 should be one or the other. http://www.simpletractors.com/images/new_in_1964/landlord_pg4_small.JPG
