Harv, my information was that it was made in the UK, regardless of labeling.
That was confirmed to me by the two manufacturing companies heads who I am certain had better knowledge than any two collectors.

Aw cmon Randy, now that was supposed to be a secret.

The MOC 56 Dodge was finished in UK for sure.
The 56 Dodge, The last release 59 Olds 98 and the last 59 Cadillac Limo released by MOC were all built off site.

Only the Dodge was done by Brooklin.
Plans to do more models never materialized for a number of reasons. One of the main ones was that doing a finely detailed model to a very high standard took too much time and effort away from Brooklin's mainstream production with insufficient return for the effort. Brooklin's management felt that they could better serve the hobby community by putting all their effort into what they do best. Furthermore, any of us who have visited their facilities know that they just do not have a lot of spare space.
