Pics: Brooklin 1956 Buick Century
By some good fortune I managed to acquire a very limited special by John Roberts. It is a 1956 Buick Century hardtop in a factory tri-tone paint scheme consisting of Mist Green over Dover White with a Laurel Green Poly top. It is one beautiful car and JR performed his signature magic in bringing the model to life.

I've always liked this car, so
I was pleased when Brooklin did it. JR has done a good job on the tri-tone and I'm looking forward to the Brooklin issue. Looks good on "home ground" David.

And for the budget minded there is the GFCC version but you'll have to accept the generic wheel covers which I enhanced with a red dot.

Nice - although a Roadmaster rather than a Century

That looks like a nice model for the money. I may need one of those.
