1942 Oldsmobile B-44 Custom Cruiser 98 Club Sedan, BRK 210 in Tunis Blue Poly

I switched my model to whitewall tires for a bit of extra class. Since the 1:1 probably wasn't outfitted that way when built, my model represents a 1:1 a few years after the war when the owner was finally able to get new tires.

Looks twice as good with the white walls. Need to do mine.

I have this BRK Olds and like it well enough, but I must say that the lower grille is rather odd looking compared to its earlier and later years.
