Brooklin question: Does anyone own the...

...1948 Packard Clipper Limousine? I've been thinking
about ordering one. I only have one Brooklin, a '55 Cadillac
Series 60 Fleetwood in my 1:43 collection. What are your
thoughts on the Packard. I'm not interested in the packaging,
just the car.

Thanks, Brian.

PICs: I have one done that has been detailed.

The standard one is a very well-done model. The extra detail really makes it pop.

Brian, I have the '48 Packard Limousine, and for me it is an outstanding model. I love it. I believe Brooklin did an excellent job with the model, but to be honest, I am highly partial to this Packard design. The model has an incredible presence and if your like the style, you will love it too.
Here's a pic of mine...

by the way, the '55 Cadillac is a very really nice model too.
