As I began exploring all the model options in the Brooklin Catalog-I knew this was a model that I had to have. Being that it was now discontinued-it proved to be a bit of a challenge to acquire. After several attempts, I was finally able to secure one and at a better price than the previous ones I had tried for. This was the 195th model to join my Brooklin collection.

I always liked the design of this Cadillac. This is the second BRK I bought.
John, I like your story about how you were able to add this fine model to your collection. I remember reading your posts on the old D4C when you discovered Brooklin models and your enthusiasm with each acquisition.
Good one, John. I agree with your choice, and, while mine is black, I like the green, too. My first car was a '51 Chevrolet torpedo body like this, and I think it was in just about the same shade of green. Thanks for your post!
