Over on Forum 24 I've posted a couple of models from my larger scale collection, both posts feature a Studebaker model in 2 different colors, they were issued by the Danbury Mint. Now, not to be undone, I decided to grab a model issued by Brooklin to post here. This one is from 1935 and was also issued in 2 different colors. Like the DM model, these are also in a red shade and a blue shade.

While the Studebaker make no longer runs the American roadways, these days mainly just being seen at car shows and other car gatherings. The model car industry offered up quite a large selection of this wonderful auto brand.  One of the most prominent model makers offering the Studebaker make is Brooklin, with a nice selection in their catalog of beautiful models.

John, I hadn't thought about it before but Brooklin did quite a few Studebaker Models.

Yes,  I always had an attraction to the 1959-60 Larks and Brooklin did a two door sedan that I made a convertible, hardtop, four door wagon and four door sedan from.  Now I have just added a 3D printed two door wagon and may add the very rare sedan delivery later.

Great looking Studes John; I'm not a huge fan of sedans but I sure like these two; especially the blue one!

Blue one in the showroom is a stock Brooklin two door.

Brooklin's forte to me was always cars of the 1930s and '40s. I wonder if Nicola Bulgari will have them make this 1934 Nash Ambassador 8 that I saw under restoration in Allentown a few years ago.

@mg-harv Nice project ....I hope it gets completed as it would certainly be a car rarely seen.

@john-quilter Those Studes  look pretty good on that hauler - which doesn't accommodate many models.
