Any way to install specific/older chrome browser version

I have a script in my automation tests (built using protractor(5.4.0) and runs on Headless Chrome in Circle CI using Docker) which installs currently the latest chrome browser for me:

apt-get update && apt-get -y install libxss1 libappindicator1 libindicator7
curl -L -o google-chrome.deb https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
dpkg -i ./google-chrome*.deb
apt-get install -yf

This script downloads me the latest chrome browser version available.

Is there any way to get older version of chrome.deb and install via curl as there are few things I suspect aren't running since chrome updated and I would like to test with a older version once.

I found few older browser versions to install on websites like slimjet, ubunutu but would like to know if I can get it via https://dl.google.com or if there is any better way to do this.
