The last two were white, but I do not remember about the two before them.

You mean maroon not red?
I thought 5640 was gold. Just simply remembering an ad for it thirty years ago but that was a long time ago and my memory isn’t always accurate anymore.

Yes, maroon sounds right...and R5640 may have left the factory in 'Avanti Gold'...Not sure! 🤔

I have an undated early AOAI Roster listing it as Gold.

The 1976 AOAI Roster has it listed as Red.

No doubt a color change....Avanti Gold Lacquer did not age well! 🥺
