Restoring a Cockshutt 550
Permalink  

I am currently restoring a 1959 Cockshutt 550 and am getting close to ready for painting. Do you guys find the original harvest gold or use something else? I have seen Tony Sha's

restored 570 on youtube videos and would like mine to look like that. That is one sharp tractor. Any information you could give me would be great. Thanks

just find an automotive paint store that sells OMNI and order # 83761. They should have the formula. Its good paint. I am not a "painter" but my tractor came out pretty good. It sticks well, dries fast and has good gloss. Make sure you use the hardener or catalyst. Thanks for the compliments on my 570, here's a pic of it as I found it570 gas 0001.jpg
