In a previous post there has been some discussion going on about Brooklin's release of the '56 Pontiac. Whether it is a Chieftain 860 or 870 seems irrelevant, they are sweet models no matter what. Since I have brought mine out, I plan on taking some new photos of each of them, coming up soon. 

In the meantime, here's the special sedan I picked up from Jack Dodds. It was crafted by John White. The model is finished in Phantom Gray & Camellia, a LE 1 of 6.

In this and other posts, I have seen pictures of models by John White. Do you know when John was doing this work?

This color combo is about as good as it gets IMHO.  I wonder if Sergio would be open to doing his upcoming '56 Pontiac Safari in these colors?

I believe John passed away four or five years ago.

John, that is one beautiful Pontiac as it represents the flavor of cars of the ‘50’s in that Phsntom Gray and Camelia color combination.  I always enjoy seeing pictures of cars from your vast collection.
