I have a spectacular original one will ALL of its paint intact. I would call it lavender/brown. (Maybe brown and purple mixed with gray would yield Denney's description.) Regardless, Rustoleum 7754 is as good of a match as you are likely to find. Carl

Have you compared the color to Rustoleum 7754, Brad?

They seem to be as-original by your pictures.
