Follow up to John Merritt’s Post #24779 about Brooklin’s ‘49 Oldsmobile’s short run.
I recalled that there was an explanation about its short run and I was able to find it. It was by none other than our own John Roberts. Here it is again.

Brooklin 1949 Oldsmobile 98 convertible
I seem to recall that Brooklin also did a convertible as a few passed through the Vectis auction a few months ago. Likely even rarer than the Holiday hardtop.

I have the ‘48 version they did. I have never seen a ‘49.

I have the Hoagy Carmichael '48 Olds conv. Is that the one you mean?
