Very nice Tom. There is also to be a version in Dubonnet Poly (a shade of magenta) with all white interior and top - should be striking.

This one sounds like my childhood AMT 1/25th I carried with me everywhere for years. Looking forward to seeing it.
I have the green hardtop and blue convertible from Brooklin.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I like the detailing that GLM is producing. Thanks for the good pictures, Dirn.

I wasn't planning on buying this Imperial. Then Tom sent me photos of the additional colors he offers since I'm on his mailing list. One look at that unusual, yet authentic-for-'61 Autumn Russet with white raised top pushed me over the fence. I believe this color was the least popular that year; nevertheless to me It makes this Imperial classier by toning down its overall look with those enormous can-opener fins.

I am very intrigued by that color as well. Couldn’t decide top up or down- went with both!
