I've had my eye on this one for a while, the color intrigued me. I found one at a very good price and it arrived today. The paint color and gloss is absolutely stunning! This is one of only 375 produced in this color scheme. I love it!
Nice addition Barry. I have the original issue in blue/white that my late friend scraped for me. His work was so precise that the Brooklins he detailed for me look like MOCs now.
This was a stock 1955 color combo not seen too much back in the day but it looked great as I recall. I remember this being the color of the '55 Chevy wrecked by Montgomery Clift in his famous near fatal crash.

I think this one is gonna look great displayed next to a certain '53 Studebaker HT in a cream-over-blue 2-tone color combo 😉
Interestingly, according to the Brooklin Blog, this C.T.C.S. version was actually the first '55 Nomad issued. The "standard" blue and white version came later.
