Brown? Have you been welding without an eye shield again?   :welder:

That looks like a nice light Burgundy color.

I never opened up the paint chips. I was just looking at the car. I used to like that style Toro. Almost nonexistant today.

Plus they were a good source of hot Olds engines, for boats and 442s.
