PICS - Xmas came early

A package arrived from John Roberts. Inside was Brooklin Models new 1965 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport in Artesian Turquoise and...a s delightful new '54 Willys Aero in Beryl Green over Coronado Sand. I hope you enjoy these two shots taken under the streetlight in a Southern New Mexico parking lot.

And Brooklin Models' spiffy Willys:

Both are wonderful...

I especially like the more common turquoise on the impala. And the Willys "pop" in that color combo!

Fantastic! I love the mid-1960's General Motors turquoise shades!

Love the turquoise on the coupe. I think the Evening Orchard Poly would have been best saved for the convertible.

Thanks, I did ask John for the turquoise Impala but the Willys was pure luck as David K. points out. It became available and I lucked out to get it.
