Tom McPherson sent me the following note along with a request that I post it to the PCS Message Board. So…here it is:
Many members that attended the Flint, Michigan Micro-Meet in February saw the Brooklin Models display and heard via a Trans-Atlantic phone presentation about Brooklin’s new range of professional vehicle models. I am delighted to be able to inform PCS members that the project is progressing nicely with the first model in this series – the 1934 Miller-Buick Art Model – on schedule for release this summer. Work has already progressed on the second in the series – the 1934 Miller-LaSalle Art Carved hearse - and others as well. The company has also begun work towards the launch of an outstanding replica of the 1960 Miller-Meteor Guardian ambulance which will receive its official introduction at next year’s Micro-Meet. In recent discussions with Brooklin’s General Manager regarding this particular offering, the question of colors arose. I suggested that we let interested members of the PCS assist with that decision. So…here we go. The vehicle will be two-toned. In the M-M catalogues over the Guardian’s production run, the vehicle was depicted in red and white, gold and white and green and gold. What colors would you like to see this model finished in? Post your preferred color combinations and we’ll use this as a guide for the model. Please note, if the model sells well in its initial color scheme, it can be re-issued in other colors later. Give the matter some thought and let us know in what colors you’d like to see this model finished. Your participation is invited and appreciated. Thanks. - Tom McPherson
