Maindrian Pace Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 That is just incredible, and the body work is just so clean, perhaps crisper than the 1:1 version. Truly monumental. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David G. Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Expert level kit-bashing and fabricating skills! An amazing replica of a delightfully ostentatious vehicle. I'm curious, have you contacted the owners to share it with them? David G. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Cohen Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 In 1990 or 91, Jay brought that car to Speedorama Custom Car Show in Toronto. My friend was the show manager and 'conned' me into helping put a coat of wax on the car, a result of my selling Meguiar's Wax at the time. The car was unloaded from a flatbed truck and moved with a fork lift, driving such a long vehicle around corners was not possible. Your model brought back some fun memories as they filled the pool with water and had some ladies model in it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) Wow. Takes the concept of "wretched excess" to a whole new level, but in a good way. Great job on that crazy thing.

Your model brought back some fun memories as they filled the pool with water and had some ladies model in it Hi Howard. Thank you so much for sharing that incredible story !. By chance, did you have any photo of the car from that show that you'd like to share with me?. There were not so many pictures of her from that period of time. I was a teen back then and knew only the pics from the Guinness book of records. You may find funny the fact that I have also put some coats of Meguiar's wax on my model !.

TimKustom Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Very awesome build of an iconic car. I loved seeing it the Guinness Book of World records and was fascinated with it's demise. Even more amazing that it has been "restored". Your model is incredible and seems it would be a centerpiece for your Cadillac collection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gautreau Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 WOOOOOOOOOWW! That is an incredible looking build! Amazing job! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Wow! There's Land Yacht and then there is this! Killer work! I had a 1984 Fleetwood once (was my Granddad's). I thought it was long. We used to joke that once you were out of the drive, you were half way to your destination. I love what you've done here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Cohen Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Bonjour Jean-Philippe - sorry, no pictures at the moment. FYI...you can use any Meguiar's NON-SILICONE product on your model cars. I have used them for many years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
