This next post in my Brooklin in Illinois series features the 1969 1/2 Plymouth Roadrunner A12 (BRK244, ELMo No. 5) in Seafoam Turquoise.  The background photo is from Gardner, Illinois along the original US Route 66, which was created 100 years ago.  The building in the photo is known as "The Shop on Route 66", where one can buy a variety of Route 66 and Coca Cola memorabilia.

This is the most utilitarian image that you have posted so far Ed. It is a catching photo.

Fantastic in every aspect. Model and photos. I was so hoping DM would eventually get to this in 1/24 as a mate to the A12 Super Bee. 😟
