[Closed] Brooklin 221x is now "ROD 221x"! Frank Goia and Randy Bahler would be proud.

Now that looks great. The color w/the wheels looks perfect.

The beauty here is, if I tire of the look on the '57, I can try these wheels out on other cars.

Perhaps one of the 1930s Buicks or the '55 Nomad.

The color is Ruby Red

It is a limited run of 50 for Robert Budig in Germany. The Sierra Gold is a factory limited edition of 199. both are labelled BRK 221X.

Not being a 4-door fan I must admit that the change in wheels makes a world of difference.

Just as John said. Five US collectors plus me went in on a single delivery from Budig.

Even with $10.90 Priority mail from me to everyone else, the share of international shipping split 6 ways made it cheaper than going it alone. But the wait was close 7 weeks since DHL partners with USPS.
