Early IH white

Is there a RustolRum color that’s close? Local caseih dealer is locked down to phone orders only and you have to have an existing account. Just wanted to to paint the wheels on my 122. Thanks

For that era Cub Cadet, I believe your best bet is Rust-Oleum "Canvas White." For a discussion on spray paint have a look at this link:

There were 3 IH white colors. When I was in IH customer service, we had a cheat sheet and to my recollection here is the application:
901 was a creamy white and used on orginal to 123.
902 was a refrigerator white and used on 104-147.
935 was used on the 108-1650 and red cadets for the implements.

There were two yellow colors used, one was Federal Highway Yellow and one was semi gloss, but it was 40 years ago so I don't remember which models used them...

Well the pieces I wanted to paint got done today. I used Tuscan sunset for yellow and almond for white. I’m happy with the results for now. Someday if I still can by the time I retire I’ll blow it all apart and do it right. It will only be 70 or so years old at that point. I did my paint at work. Pretty cool being able to use a real paint booth. The best part was when I pushed the button that said CURE and watched the booth temp climb to 130 F. Stuff was dry in a little over 30 minutes
