Brooklin models from the 1930's make great candidates for street rods. Here are three in metal flake colours: 1934 Lasalle three window coupe, 1937 Buick 5 window coupe and 1937 Buick plain back. I am working on three more Brooklins: a 1930 ford 5 window coupe, a 1934 Ford 5 window coupe, a 1935 Plymouth 5 window coupe. I also have a 1936 Pontiac coupe and 1937 Pontiac coupe but because these are relatively rare I'm not sure if I will proceed with the modifications.

Very kool kars! Did you lower them and add the mag wheels? Dechromed, I can't tell on my small smartphone?

@karl. I added 3D printed wheels and tires and removed all chrome. Didn't have to lower them.
