An old Durham Classics '41 Chevrolet Utility Coupe. This one is a special edition for the first annual DCCC in a limited color. Being a utility, it's unusual and i like the color. A friend of mine restored a 1:1 for a customer to winning concours standards about thirty years ago and I I liked it then.

I love it, but there are too much Durhams in my collection,

Good model! These coupe/pickups were never common. It would look good alongside a regular pickup.

I was very disappointed when Durham Classics shut down. Great models IMO.

If some's enough, too much is just right!

Got one of those from a Vectis auction a while back but had it mislabled on my shelf as a 1953, now corrected to a 1954.

You're right; in fact I never saw one until the model came out.

Good for you; I've tried for ages but no luck.
