I'm going through my archive files and came across these two sets. A brief look through my other files and it seems these are currently the only ones I have of these three models.
The 1st is another example of Brooklin's 1951 Packard 250 Mayfair Hardtop - this version comes without the rear fender skirts. After the completion of the La Carrera Panamericana version, some bodies were left over and were used for the 2nd color standard release in cream & green. I came across this one and even though I have the other one, I thought it distinctive enough to add as well.
The 2ne one from the archives is a set of Thunderbird models. These models were released as the BCC 2004 Club Edition Models - "A Pair of Squares" - issued as Limited-Edition set, 1 of 200. Some of my favorite models from Brooklin (which to be honest, always seems to be a big list) is the Thunderbird models, all of them. These are no exception. When these were added to my collection, they came to me from the Dick Browne Collection. I have 65 models that came from his estate, and each has a treasured place in my collection.
