Simplicity Dump Cart

Went to a tractor show a year or so ago, and a young man, very happy with his wares, took the time to educate me in a very polite & knowledgable fashion, on his Simplicity garden tractor dump cart.

I was sooooooo impressed with it that I set out looking on craigslist for one.
Took a long time, but I finally stumbled onto one late this past summer, and I'm looking to restore it.
Won't take much though, it's in very good shape, and seems to need only paint and labels.

The only information I can find on the web about it is at simpletractors.com but it doesn't show a picture.
But just like the lad said, it has a 7 cubic foot capacity, and a 1000lb rating, flip-over dump/grading, and comes apart with just a few pins to store itself all within it's own box for minimal storage space!
Pretty impressive for a garden tractor implement I would say!
7 cu. ft -- Mfg. 1600236

Anyway, does anyone know the correct color to use for this wagon/cart?

Thanks.

I've got an old Simplicity snow blower, the
tag says "Mfd. by Simplicity Division of Allis-
Chalmers" paint color is Allis-Chalmers orange.
 
Simplicity orange is virtually the same as the early Chevrolet engine orange. With that, know that there are two Chevy engine oranges. I think the early one is the lighter hue. The lighter hue is the same as Case Flambeau Red. I have a cart like yours and IF I ever repaint it I will be useing Case Flambeau Red in Van Sickle paint. That is mighty tough paint for the cost. You can see my Case orchard tractor on their website. Look under "tractor hall of fame"
