Jeffcad Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hi guys ! Sharing with you today this Jo-Han's 1969 Cadillac Deville convertible, my first build of 2019. It's a promo that I have converted into the convertible version, as Jo-Han never proposed this specific model. ( just the Coupe Deville and the Eldorado ). If I recall, I think I got that promo for 3 bucks about 15 years ago because it was totally damaged. Half of the roof was gone, such as A pillars and windshield. The body looked like a cat had chew big parts of it, was full of little dents and most of the original paint was scratched. I didn't know what to do with it at the time but I couldn't let it go, so I kept it and restored it. I have detailed the interior with carpet, wood-ish inside panels, created a soft boot and added front seat's headrests and wider white walls. For the colour, I tried to get as close as its original one, such as Sapphire blue Met. Still a few details to finish yet, such as antenna, scripts and mirrors but overall this is it. Hope you'll like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Beautiful looking Caddy. Perfect color combination and the interior is very realistic looking. The only thing that catches my eye is the lack of vent windows but I like it as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Hamilton Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I like that! I have two unbuilt 69 Cadillacs, one a Promolite Resin (absolutely beautiful) and a JoHan kit. The Promolite resin kit came with a boot. A friend of mine had a Black one with a Red Interior that is almost as pretty as the one you built.
