BRK#19 was originally done in red. The casting was very accurate even by today’s standards, but it had no chrome detail. A black one followed still with no chrome detail. Then came BRK19A, done in this gleaming Platinum White with a fair amount of chrome detail. Another one of my favorites. Love that grille taken from the Imperial.

An excellent model-I really love the '55 Chrysler models from Brooklin. I have all of the 300s in all the colors. The Black BCC edition in before & after restoration is very special.
David, I enjoy your posts. The time you take to find the 1:1 photos is appreciated. Thanks.

@jcarnutz Thanks, John, it’s fun searching for the actual cars for comparison to the models. It’s amazing what’s out there.

Check out this car on Youtube. You will have to go to the Youtube video as this is just a snapshot

My Dad drove one and I have this model as well.

I liked the pictures and comparisons of the BRK '55 300 in white, but the comment about the original red being largely absent of chrome didn't seem right. So tonight I found mine. I have a hunch that I agreed with Professor Knight and changed the Brooklin model just a little.
Gosh, cars of that era had a lot of chrome! (And I still like it!)

David, that additional chrome detail does look realistic on the car.
