I can't help you with the guitar, but, welcome to the forum!

I would figure that is a color that the Japanese would call "Burgundy Mist".

Those appear to be Highway One pickups; plastic top bobbin; which pickups are readily available used because folks take them out so often. Check here to see which version you have:

Obviously she's a toploader. Fender was doing more top loaders as recently as then, and at that time even the Mexican Fenders were toploader.

Thanks a lot! I spent a year wondering the colours name, but what do you mean with top loader??

Welcome Pablo! I agree with consensus - "Burgundy Mist".

The strings go through the brige rather than the back of the guitar body
