Definitely go with classic green. I think it would look better and be more authentic since those tractors aren’t made anymore. I’d would do a bit of research and find what color the tractor originally came in and paint it with that color. Shouldn’t really matter either way.

Depending on the year of the tractor should help you determine that stock color for that time period will help the value should you decide to sell it. Why worry. You’re only going to get it dusty & dirty out in the field. If you plan on restoring it, your front and back yard are probably going to like like a horror story from a Sanford & Sons rerun! lol!
