I added this model to my Brooklin Collection late last year. I've seen photos of one in these colors and have been looking for my own since. I am unsure as to who the craftsman of this model was, but it is very well done and at a price that I couldn't pass up. Brooklin's '56 Pontiac sedans are a real treat and having both the red and blue versions already made me feel fortunate. With this and the pink/gray version I added two years ago, they satisfy my need for the attitude of color I am always looking for.

What beautiful car and Brooklin replica of it ! My family had a 4-door 1955 Pontiac and I have some diecasts of the '55 automobile in different scales. The colors on this 1956 are superb and really stand out.

Most flaunt over top-of-the-line convertibles and 2-door hardtops but its the lower rung 4-door sedan that most of us grew up and became familiar with.
John, this Pontiac is a fine example. Love the colors and your pics of course.

@perrone1 Tony, you make it sound like one of your food and adult beverage pairings.
