This post in my Brooklin in Illinois series features their 1934 Buick M60 convertible coupe in Freedom Blue (BC 029), which is part of the Brooklin Models Buick Collection. For this post I again use a scene along the original US Route 66. This "house and canopy" style Standard Oil gas station, located in Odell Illinois, was originally built in 1932 and later restored to its 1940s appearance.

Wow, that looks great ..... the gas station, the Buick and the Brooklin model ! I have a Brooklin 1934 Buick hardtop in blue and it also is a favorite. A beautiful car and model.

Ed, your best yet IMO. Love the building and the Buick. I collected every Buick in the Brooklin collection and every one of them is a gem.
