Same colour and model as this
To be honest I don't miss lying under it and her successors in winter constantly ( or so it seemed) bleeding brakes, replacing drum brakes, greasing the nipples, replacing/repairing hoses, thermostats, gaskets, water pumps, thermostats, carburettors, distributors, dynamos and replacing cross ply tyres with cheap remoulds every 3k miles.
I always noticed how bright red that blood looked on your scraped hands against the black grease on them.
Then again it was all I could afford at the time - at £20! it cost me most of my months salary
But I must admit that stripping down and cleaning the MS on a GCMS in the warmth of the lab was very pleasurable.
