Odd question but, does anyone happen to know what primer color was used on original GM sheetmetal?

Sorry, 1970 in particular.

Anyone do any sanding lately or remember when they stripped original GM sheetmetal if black primer was used by the manufacturer?

From what I've seen on my car, it appears to be a reddish/brown color. My car has the original paint on it, and that's what I've seen as I strip the paint.

Another vote for reddish/brown on my 70.
