After checking old threads I didn’t find an overly consolidated answer…

What factory colors were J3’s and L4’s painted? This may be an amazingly stupid question, but the Lenape Papoose, was not the standard paint scheme. Curious if any others were also non standard.

Reason I ask is I wish to not reinvent the wheel nor paint anything other than Cub yellow, but would like to see some other “correct” paint jobs (if any exist) and give their historical representation a bit of consideration.

Kind of like all Model T Fords weren’t black.

Thanks a bunch.
