Arrived today, the last Willys sedan, the Itamaraty. (pic) So here are my Willys models.

Made in China for a magazine series in Brazil, this is the last Willys, the Itamaraty, and it was the last of the Brazilian Willys production, 1960-1972.

Named for the Palace of Itamaraty, its regal stance was meant to remind Brazilians of their first capital building as an independent nation in 1899. The building continued as headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs until 1970, and its splendor is a center of Rio de Janeiro. The Itamaraty also came in an extended wheelbase model.

Aero Willys
What a nice collection of Aero Willys models. I only have the 2 American cars, but I like them all.

A pity the streched limo version was not released.
It would be a fine add to any presidential cars collection:

I agree. It seems there were about 27 built, all 1:1. (pic)
