Hi there i have a Merry Tiller Titan GT and i am hoping to strip it and repaint it soon,it appears to be in its original paint and the color looks more orange than red. I was hoping if some body knows the colour, would i be far from it doing in Massey Fergy red? all replies would be much appreciated, regards. Mick

Mmmmm, just asked OH who used to use Merry Tillers in his landscaping business years ago, and he said they used to be a maroony red hammerite type paint job as far as he remembers, sorry can't be more help.  Good luck with the restoration.  OH is supposed to be restoring his oward Gem, but its been in pieces all over the place for 2 years!!!!!

Title: well thanks for your trouble,mick
