When I bought my Midget it had been painted several times, but I found it
with a faded red-orange color. I decided to return it to its original
Damask Red, which is a dark red. In the shade, it looks burgundy/maroon,
but in the sun it's more of a garnet red. The first time I took it out
after the paint job, I got the comment from a gas station attendant that
the color looked perfect for that car. I'm happy with it.
