I think is this one:

In 1972, as pre -testing was getting underway, Chassis Testing outfitted the first
mobile test bed. Left; V I, a Mercedes 350 SL with original engine. The first
transaxle experiments were carried out on this car. Later V I was fitted with
a 928 carburetor engine (right).
Basic suspension experiments were performed with V 2 . an Opel Admiral.
Bottom left; a front suspension of the type planned for the 928 is mounted to
this chassis.

Indian red, same family color as guard red. That is my favorite.
I have a black one , because that was what the boat brought, but a red one was the goal before.

Yes it may just be a promotional name, but it is the one listed on my door sill sticker and I like calling it Indischrot.
