He is right about Ford, but I don't know about the '55 part . There is a
Ford tractor color (can't remember the name) that it is an almost exact
match. Mine is still the original color and the winner of the TR4 concours
at Ashville (VTR nationals) had used the Ford tractor color. We compared the
colors and his was almost the same as the color on my filter canister. That
might be the same as the '55 turquois. If it is, please let me know for
future reference. Cheers
