No reason to think that it's not the Rustoleum dark bronze hammered finish. Here's the Rustoleum site to see. (top row, farthest right sample)

Time to Restore the 510

Yup, it looks like a real nice machine. A little tender loving care and she'll be like brand new.

You better take care though, or you'll lose that John Deere cup. It's sitting right on the edge.
