John Q., I think you're correct about it being a Derham conversion.

@bob-jackman   NEO has planned, but is again delayed, a 1949 Chrysler New Yorker sedan in blue.  My stockist now says 12-31-21.  This is the same date as their planned 1952 Chevrolet tin woody in maroon.    What I really wouldn't mind seeing are some 1949-52 Plymouths.

John I agree I would love to see some Plymouths. I assume you have the Neo black Chrysler New Yorker and 52 Chevrolet station wagon which are both excellent models. I would welcome both in additional colors. Based on what is happening with American-Excellence I'm wondering if Neo will be producing any new models...I certainly hope so because they have produced many models that I never thought we would see.

@renato-bardi  Renato, your dioramas are seriously impressive. You've recreated a true feel for the U.S. high st. circa 1961 just like a Hollywood set.  Can you reveal where you sourced your store fronts?

@bob-jackman No, actually I do not have the black '49 Chrysler as I have been waiting for the more attractive blue one.  I do have the black '52 Chevrolet woody but will likely sell that upon receipt of a maroon one.    Strangely,  my supplier lists the Chrysler as a 1945 but it is clearly a 1949.

   Here's mine.  The colors play havoc with my camera's settings!  But I think these are fairly faithful to BRK's original.  Good looking model!

@john-quilter 

I will get the blue one when it comes out, but I think the very formal, stately looking black one is a beauty!

I missed getting the '49 Chrysler in black, but would love one in blue. I wasn't aware of it being done. I hope it is soon, any ideas?

@jcarnutz  My usual supplier says available 12-31-21 but that has slipped from late 2020.   Don't know what the delay is and my supplier does not respond to my query.

@moe-parr   And along with this black '49 sedan is the Western '49 limo as shown here with the '51-'52 early Goldvarg and a custom '46-'48 Imperial limo made from a Vitesse Chrysler Royal with multiple body enlongations.
