Whoa! I'm still hunting for a shelf space for BRK 87. (pic)

This one arrived from Kenneth Doerr just yesterday. Not a holy grail but one that I missed years ago. I won it on the Legacy auction site, it arrived in a timely manner, and it was well packaged. A good exchange! Thanks, Ken.

Just look at that detailing. The spare tire assembly must have been a real job for Brooklin's good people, and it was put together beautifully.

Now where am I going to put another DeSoto. . . .

David H., that DeSoto wagon is one of my very favorites and you were lucky to find one. An earlier Brooklin, I still think it's one of their best. Apparently those woodies were very complicated to assemble hence Brooklin isn't doing woodies any more. Glad I got mine when I did and glad you were able to find yours. Nice pics you posted.

That new Kerry Green '54 Firedome looks gorgeous. One of those pictured will be mine for sure. I love the color even though it's not Ensign Blue Poly.
