@moe-parr Barry, I have both colors by Brooklin and a version by Goldvarg. A late friend had a 1/1 which I tried to buy for years, he passed away and his widow sold the car for about half I would have paid.

The ‘61 Ventura is my all time favorite from this era, the ‘61 Chevy is a very close second.

I'm a longtime fan of the '61 Ventura...much nicer than the overdone Bonneville.

 

Do either/both of you have this little beauty by Brooklin?

Barry, I don't have it. I just might have to relax my "size does matter" standard as your posted example has all my attention.

It's available on e-Bay from the Brooklin Models "Outlet" at a very good price!

The 61 is my favorite.  I prefer the 56 over the 57.  Other then the Corvette and T-bird,  didn't like the 58 of any make .

@moe-parr, Barry thanks for the lead...it's a bit more than I'm willing to spend.

That is a gorgeous model, but I made a sacred vow to stay on the 1/24 wagon. Back in my “all scales” days years ago I had several Brooklin models, liked them a lot but it looks like they’ve come a long ways since then.
