CANADIAN TOY COLLECTORS SOCIETY

In 2004 C.T.C.S. commissioned a special Brooklin model as a charity fundraiser based on the 1935 Plymouth Deluxe Coupe. This model is done in red with markings identifying it as a Fire Chief’s Car for the Unionville Volunteer Fire Department. Just three of these models were produced with “1 of 3” engraved in the baseplate. The first was raffled as a charity fund raiser, the second went to the C.T.C.S. Brooklin collection and the third was auctioned during the 2004 C.T.C.S. Greatest Collectors Toy Show on October 17, 2004. The factory did an excellent job in adding the appropriate insignia to the doors, lights and siren to the roof and plated fire extinguishers to the running boards. Interior is finished in white and the red wheels sport narrow whitewall tyres. The license plate reads “ONTARIO CTCS 04”.
