EARLY CANADIAN BROOKLIN - BRK 6 1932 Packard Light 8

I started collecting Brooklins in the 1970s when John Hall was building them in his garage in Brooklin, Ontario, Canada.

Here is one that I got from him back in 1977 at a Canadian Toy Collectors Society meeting.

The model master was created by Julian Stewart who later started Durham Classics. His initials and date are at the front of the base.

Pretty cool, and historic, to be marked JS 77 on the base.  Plus you know what it means!  😎

Probably found an inexpensive or damaged extra one and converted it into a Light Eight sedan.

@john-quilter 

Very nicely done John.Making a 4 door sedan required a creative touch.
