Sweet! Love the color, great job on the foiling. You can't go wrong with a 50's Caddy.

That is realy clean. The windshield almost looks like its "chopped". Outstanding detail on the engine and interior.

thanks everyone for the kind words. kaleb, this was the mongram kit and it went together pretty well...had to use clamps and 5 min epoxy to keep some things together, but all in all it was good. pete, the paint is from dupont and it is jeep rescue green metallic. thanks again

Hey, that's easy... You do what any Cadillac owner does - you just put it in a handicapped space, whether or not you really need one! After all, you drive a CADILLAC, so you're entitled, right? It won't fit in just one? Angle it across two of 'em! Nobody who claims to NEED a handicapped space will mind walking an extra few steps because, after all, you have a CADILLAC! :rolleyes:

BTW: Beautiful model! I like the different color combination you chose.
