I have only seen the Inbrima versions of that Renault in blue/white, white/silver and yellow/silver before. I was shown pictures of another collection from Brazil which was owned by two brothers. All the the castings were duplicated and kept in really nice condition. Everything has to be perfectly even with kids or there is fighting :-)

Here is a recent addition to my collection of another later issue casting. I have only seen the Inbrima 67 Datsun in this unique pink-orange/salmon color. I have not seen this color on another Inbrima model. It is much more orangy than the rose-pink color usually found on the Inbrima 28 Lincoln Continental. It is probably most similar to some of the color shades on the standard UK 8B Mustang Wildcat Dragster. Have you seen this pink-orange color on another Brazilian casting?

(thanks for resizing the picture Ghosthunter, I realized my mistake with the picture size after I uploaded. I fixed it in my post)

I believe it is the same color as the base of this boss mustang model I found and sold to a friend last year, I remember I compared it and it was very similar to the color used on the lincoln continental inbrima (white base) that is most common to find here...

I love the red base on that Mustang! I have a similar one with an etched base instead of label. The color is close, but the Datsun is definitely a more pink-orange.

I will also attach a picture of the rose-red lincoln I am talking about. Unfortunately, I do not own one, but in this picture you can see it compared to the later issue tomato red on the 44 Passenger coach. It definitely has a creamy pinkish tinge, but I think the Datsun has a different orangy-pink tone. At least that is what I am told by someone who was able to compare them side by side.

My favourites are the white Alfa and the blue Lambo. All are very nice.
