Only thing that is black is the decals and the hoses, the rest is yellow. I use the Deere industrial yellow, not that pricey.

Make sure you get the old construction yellow for construction equipment before Nov. 1st, 1992. Its TY24354 at Deere. Pat

................and the head light and tail light metal shells are black, along with the dash. Lights can be gloss or semi gloss black, dash should be flat black.

I have never seen ones I knew to be in original condition but was the radiator always painted black and were the starter and generator always yellow?

Duh, I forgot about dash and grille, sorry. Starter and generator are yellow. I use a semi-gloss on the dash, it looks a little better to me.
