Hey Guys,
I'm about ready to finish off my CA. I about have a base layer of paint on everything. Since I used a couple different colors of primer, I used an old can I had for a base coat so I could get everything the same shade of orange before I started so I didn't have light and darker spots. I picked up two quarts of the Valspar Restoration series from Redneck Walmart (TSC) and I was wondering if it would be the right shade possibly for my CA or if I should just use it for another base coat if its not the right color. It seems to be a fairly vibrant orange but I'm not an expert on chalmers since I"m 18 and the tractor is 41 years older than I am, So i'm just going off of what people tell me. Feedback anybody?

Probably not correct for your CA. It should be PO1, while the tsc valspar is closer to PO2. HTH God Bless.
