A couple of weeks ago, Joe Saggese started his Friday Night at the Car Hop weekly thread and featured the 1957 Chrysler 300 series. I found a terrific photo of a restored Chrysler 300 in orange and cream colors. What a terrific model. A couple of weeks before, I found a 1954 Chevrolet Bel-Air in the same color scheme. My model arrived a couple of days after I posted f the photo to Joe's thread. I was blown away what a beautiful model this is and it is not by Lionel.

That is a great car in an unusual color combination.

That looks terrific. Had a Buddy that had such color Pontiac, forgot what year, but with the Pontiac hood ornament which lit up orange when headlights were turned on it was a sight to see. Just beautiful.

This model will be a sure entry into the 2021 Car Show. Arrived too late for this year.

It’s not yellow Brian but it will do!
Kidding aside, that’s a fantastic color for a car. Orange you glad it wasn’t made by Lionel?

Not to worry guys, I took this photo before installing the mirror. It came in a separate bag.
