[AJD] JD Industrial Yellow Paint

[Duane Larson]

Hello John,
One possibility might be to contact Chris or Brian at the Collector Center 
(800)240-5265 - they have a nice painting setup and I believe do painting 
for collectors.  They might have some knowledge of the proper industrial 
Deere color.  Or Greg Stephen might also.
Regards,
Duane Larson
