Love the car. Just wish I could pull the trigger on a Brooklin car, but finanaces prohibit. Would love to see it as a stock Allstate.

This was NOT modified. This car was bought as you see it! I would like to get a set of those wheels and modify some other cars that I already own.

After some further investigation I've found that the rear lights are wrong on the diecast. I'm finding it very hard to paint a $100 plus diecast though.

Hey Frank, I believe what you're looking at in that video is just a different year. I think both are correct.

Now I'm really confused. It may be a different model. Anyone else know for sure? I'd be the first to admit it if I was wrong. Check out this link (scroll down):

I think I know what's going on now....the taller tail fins with the small in-set taillights are 1951 and EARLY 1952 year models. (Like the one in the video you posted.)
Cars made later on starting mid-year in 1952 until production ceaced in '54, had the fins with the taillights built in like your model above.

So if that's correct (which I believe it is) the diecast in NOT a 1951 !

1952 EARLY model

1952 LATE model

Sorry, I miss-spoke here. I should have said they miss labeled your car as a '51...it would have to be a late '52 or older like you just said. :thumbsup:
