Default Is all harvest gold the same?

Is all harvest gold the same?

A guy who does home remodeling tells me he has a harvest gold electric
stove in good condition from 1970.

Mine in a Whirlpool and matches the color of my Whirlpool
refrigerator.

Did more than one company make the same color and if so, were they
really the same color???

It's an hour or two away from here. I wish I had started with home
remodelers right here, but I didn't**. I don't have to buy it until I
see it, but it means driving a couple hours and probably renting a
trailer which is a nuisance and a little money.

So what are the odds the colors are the same?



**I was about to buy a replacment thermostat for the current stove. I
had moved the stove to look at the one it has now, and I only bumped
it a little, something that wouddn't hurt it normally, but the fire
changed the inside window glass and it shattered.

Is it possible to buy a piece of such glass and cut it to fit the
window opening? The part is not available from Whirlpool.

Can I move the outer window to the inside and replace the outer window
with lexan? Any other ideas?

Thanks.


I'd be taking your refrigerator with you on the drive. Unless you see
them side by side, you won't be able to tell whether they match. The
human eye can distinguish at least a million different colors.*
