MF590 paint colour

[Steveyboy!]

Anyone know what colour/shade of grey it should be on a French built Massey 590, 2 door cab model. Looked online and can't seem to find any details anywhere.

Uni grey was the colour of the 575 2 door 1979 model here earlier single door 1978 575 was flint grey the 2 590s we had were both Coventry built so they were Stoneleigh grey.

French models up to 1979,were I believe Flint grey.and after that,Uni grey.

Ok. Looks like uni grey then. She's on an X plate so is after 1979.

MF super red has never changed through all the years , right or wrong?
My 1978 575 is flint grey. Looks way better IMO.

I'm just trying to match up with existing paintwork. She's had to have a new block unfortunately so it's not a full makeover. Just rebuilding the engine now.

Trouble is you are not going to get new paint to match up to 35 year old faded paint

Yeah, I realise that, just trying to remain authentic ish. Plus I might start and work through it over a period of time and repaint each bit as I go.
