If it were mine, I'd do the same thing. The paint code for the red is PPG brand MAE 72838B.

We featured the 1850 in our May/June 2007 issue, which included production numbers. According to the research I did for that article, there were 3,761 1850s made as Cockshutts. A handfull of those were industrial, and wouldn't have been red.

Any more questions, feel free to ask.
