Come on post a photo and lets see it, it makes the post more fun. Sounds like a Wombat made into a Dirt Squirt sleeper.

Check for evidence of re-painting: existence of primer under the paint, black paint under the red, improperly filled sanding scratches, overspray, etc. The best paces to look are the places that would be near impossible to sand off the original paint, i.e., between welded gussets, inside the gussets forward of the horn and coil mounts, etc. :)

All the 94/94A's were black. The prototypes were apparently the only ones that could have been red.
