Funny you mention that color. I know the light blue is correct, but rare today, and that yellow (Gotham Gold ) is also accurate (I had a 1:1 just like it ) but I don't remember that shade of red. Seminole Red, which was darker, was the most popular red, seen today on many convertibles (whether they were originally red or not 🙄). Â
I'm assuming STAMP's choice is correct, but I don't remember it. Perhaps these are prototypes and it's supposed to be Persian Sand (which has a little pink in it).  ????
Here's Seminole Red & Persian Sand:

@chris Maybe it's the lighting in the model pics? I'm with you though, that shade of red doesn't look right.
