Factory correct models.
I have to agree with Curtis 100%. I made these same comments about another model some time back, and my opinion is the following; I think that a very big percentage of collectors want models just as they came from the factory or appeared in dealer showrooms. A infinitesimal number of collectors may not care about accuracy or authenticity, but most will agree with Curtis, as I do. Just an opinion.

Thanks for the feedback! Keep it coming...
It takes a lot of eyes and a team to build one of these.
I appreciate everyone taking the time to offer their insights!
Thank you,
Jeff

PICS--Many collectors bought Brooklin's 1961 Ford "Fairlane" when standard fender trim was missing &
the final product did not match up with Brooklin's pre-release photo. The front fender is missing a horizontal trim strip that appears in all 1961 Ford publications and the BRK pre-release announcement. There was extensive discussion about this on Forum 43 when it was introduced. BTW, I have additional extensive documentation to support this observation.
