About two weeks ago I created a post here showing some photos I added to the Brooklin Collectors Club Facebook page as part of a set called Brooklin in Illinois.  For those of you not viewing the BCC Facebook page, here is the latest model that was included.  It is the 1961 Pontiac Ventura, BRK231LE, which was the hobbyDB exclusive edition. The setting for the picture is outside the Route 66 Museum in Pontiac, Illinois. The city of Pontiac is about 100 miles southwest of Chicago along the old Route 66.

When I was doing the photo session, I first did another Pontiac model as a test photo.  It is the 1957 Pontiac Bonneville by WMCE.  Though this photo was not added to the BCC Facebook page, I thought some of you might find it interesting.
