If I was going to buy a new TD Wagen out of the showroom I would def pick it in this Fire engine Red color. My 79 300SD was the same red and also came with faded Texas paint. Not to mention the entire rear end covered with dried dead Love Bugs from the ride to S. Florida from Houston. I am sure the driver had to have it on the top rack of his carrier with the back facing front.
I used Maguires Paint cleaner first- by hand, then Color Back - and the wax, and it did bring back the faded to new again.
