Here’s another comparison  between an actual ‘58 Chevrolet Yeoman wagon finished in Anniversary Gold over Honey Beige and Brooklin’s in 1:43 finished by John White.  I’ve posted views of this Yeoman before but here are the two scales  from the same perspective.

@moe-parr +1. The color combination is outstanding.

Thanks David.  When I was a teenager my boss (service station owner) had this exact same Chevy wagon which I drove many times to pick up parts, etc.  He also had a very built up/fast '65 Mustange GT coupe (black vinyl over copper....gorgeous) which he NEVER let me drive.  Lol.

A great-looking Chevrolet car and model, too. My Dad had a 4-door 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air sedan and I still remember it.

My dad had one of these back in the day.  I think it was metallic blue (?).  Good memories.
