WOW, you Guys are on a roll, another one now and having a quick look at it I see it is the first version with the red model description stamping over a small white area behind the model and the actual card is for construction vehicles instead of PSV vehicles, suggesting a truck or other commercial vehicle would normally have been 'Blistered' to this card.

Thanks again Guys,

GHOSTHUNTER.

Are these three models in the same 'Lotus-Setra' Yellow?

Found these three pictures on Christian's site in the Brazilian section so is there a clue there?

Ghosty.

Those Brazilians are NOT Setra yellow - its easy to see no white primer used where VW is chipped and on hood moulding on the SM which shows shadow of metal through paint which is nowhere near as high gloss as the candy coat Yum Yum yellow

On ebay at the moment #12 Yellow Setra in blister pack.

Thanks Alex, it is the same one posted by Reg earlier in this thread, but his picture was quite small, so it is of benefit by being bigger.

Ghosty.

Just a brilliant thread!
And if I may interject a bit off-topic - Brazilians would have had an altogether different paint supplier, or so it would seem from pix I have seen of their models, no?

It would be too expensive to export paint from the UK when paint of all qualities was availalble locally in Brazil.
