This time around, we'll spend a minute with a recent release from Brooklin Models. Issued in the NB Center Collection, as a Vatican Car.
The model is an interesting choice from Brooklin and the 1st they've done in an early 30s Cadillac.

There are some features that are unique to this car which was fabricated by Cadillac exclusively for the Vatican. It lacks the chrome louvers on the hood, and the luggage rack is not the standard rack available for this vintage. Those fenders are an incredibly rich and deep blue. Your photos capture the colors well, John.

It's highly Papal but still big, beautiful and elegant!
