MF 1080 Seat Cushion color??

Hey Massey Folks,

I need to replace the seat cushion on my MF 1080.  The tattered one currently on the tractor is black, and looks like it could have been the original.  Shopping around I have found aftermarket replacement seat back and cushions in both black, and in gray with red stitching.  I am wondering which one is correct??

In the literature I have, there aren't any photos of a 1080 wherein I can see the seat cushion...  The Universal Hobbies toy has a black seat...

Interested in your thoughts, or if anyone has a piece of literature on the MF 1080 that shows the seat in a color photo.

Three photos attached:  Current seat on my 1080 (just ignore that nose piece behind it.  I don't have any way to photoshop that out...).  Other two are aftermarket seats I have found available.

Thanks,

JB

John,
I have an original 1080 Colored Sales Literature that shows an overhead picture of the platform  and the Seat is Gray.  Hope this helps.  I can email you a picture if needed.

If I remember right they were grey when they came out. the 1085 probably had a black seat and the replacement seats for the 1080 were black. So your seat has probably been changed at some time.

Terry and Dan,

Thank you both for your replies.  Gray it will be!

Cheers,
