The BRK 155 1958 Buick Roadmaster 75 (Note: the apparent concave shape in the rear is due to the fact that area will be filled in with plated parts.)

"When better Buicks are built, Brooklin will build them"? Thanks, JR & Dick.

My sentiments exactly. These are gorgeous!
Now did I hear somebody whisper in my ear, "Laurel Mist" as the color for the '58 Roadmaster, or is that just a fig newton of my imagination?

You could be right David!

Thanks for sharing these. I'm excited for both of these Buicks.

That would be a true beauty, JR. . .
Thanks for posting the images of the brass masters for these future Brooklin Buicks. The '39 appears very accurate and I can just see the 1/43rd scale spatula they will use to spread the chrome on the '58. I keep thinking that maybe I won't have to have all in the B.C. series but then out comes another and it becomes a must have. Somebody in Bath has us figured out.

David, I had to stop myself from getting all those great B.C. models.
Besides the problems of cost and space, I'm afraid the series may outlive me. Thus far I am limiting myself to one of each year. I'm certain at some point I may weaken, perhaps for a limousine or two.
