Brooklin 1954 Bel Air

It can be easy to overlook how great some of the older Brooklin castings were. In the hands of a great modeler, they come alive. This one was done by John White.

I have an enhanced version done by my late friend who scraped many of my Brooklins. I have this model displayed next to the MOC 1953 and it looks every bit as good.

I just posted one of these lovely '54 Chevies to the Zone's 1/43 auction.

It hasn't been detailed like the one above, but it could be! Great model, and a great addition to a Chevy or '50s collection.

This is a Brooklin that screams for such detailing. I have it and it actually irritates me to look at it for this reason.
