Does anybody know what brand and paint code the gold tub is. It might be easier for me to fix the front chassis plate that I have ,after all it only has minor scuffing no deep scratches...anybody know?

Is it just me but were there several different shades of gold used over it's manufacturing life?

Not just your imagination there. I think I have 11 gold chassis and only 3 of them really actually look similar to the same color...not to mention the other pieces like the nose pieces, motor mounts and nose braces. But then again most of mine have been abused and have no idea what has been used on them to clean them up
