I have a 67' JD1020 and am in the process of repainting the hood, front plate, side plates and battery lid. You have to take the hydraulic reservoir and fuel tank out to get the front plate off.
I noticed that it had been painted yellow and then green on top of that. The yellow looks original and I was wondering if the front end may have been painted up for an industrial model and was maybe pulled off that line to be used on an AG tractor straight from the factory. Did they do stuff like that? Here's a pic of it.
The tractor was also missing the oil cap which I bought from Deere but it had raised lettering on it that said Torque rite or something like that. I filed it off, sanded it and hand engraved what you see on the top to make mine a one of a kind, then painted it with that Majic paint.
