That one's painted by its owner. In 1976, Case offered factory a stars and stripes paint jobs: http://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/000/5/2/527-ji-case-1570-photos.html
It was painted by the Getz Hot Rod Shop, hence the link, but I know what you mean. I defined it as a spirit of 76 tractor by it's appearance, not it's model name, designation, etc. I had no effing idea any tractor maker actually would stars and stripes a tractor. That's pretty absurd. Interesting, but... would you buy one? Not me. Gimme green or red.
Case did some weird stuff back then. They also painted their demonstrator tractors black and referred to them as "Black Knights": https://www.fastline.com/v100/Case-970-BRUGGINKS-INC-OOSTBURG-WI-equipment-detail-3bd67b54-332a-402c-99fc-e8f633672443.aspx
