From My Brooklin Collection... Post #019
Brooklin Models issued the 1st 1960 Cadillac in 2013-I had seen photos of it and I put it on my list, but there were others with a higher priority. Now I had read the criticisms about the overall look of the model, and from the photos I had seen-it did look a bit off. In mid-2015 Brooklin issued a hardtop coupe of their 1960 Cadillac in Siena Rose, it was then I decided it might be time to add a 1960 Cadillac model to my collection. Even with that, it still took until 2017 to make that possible. I bought the hardtop coupe & the 6-window sedan in pink at the same time. I thought they looked good together as a pair.
Now when the models arrived, I was blown away by the look of the models, they were both quite amazing. Now they weren't perfect, in a few ways, Brooklin did not quite capture the correct look of the 1960 Cadillac. With that, it didn't matter to me, these models were amazing-they said 1960 CADILLAC to me in every way, I was very much impressed. So much so, that I have continued to add each of the models Brooklin issued, eleven in total. At least I think I have added them all...
Here's the 1st Brooklin 1960 Cadillac model in my collection.
