Were any Cletracs of the 30's painted red ? I have a 1936 40D that is all rust topside but has red paint underneath and on the inside of the track frame, rollers, sprockets, etc. Thanks TEDV:)
They were a brown from 1930-35. See this paint color link (//http).
I know they were all painted with red lead primer. Maybe that's what you see. My gramps started out at the company laying on his back with a brush painting red lead underneith them.
