Here's my 1/25 scale JoHan 1979 Cadillac Coupe deVille in Saxony Red with red Landau vinyl top and sunroof. Way too many hours spent restoring parts, repainting, & detailing. Body finished with clearcoat. For the interior the wood applique was made from dollar store shelf liner. Carpeting made from felt I got from Walmart. Chrome silver tone self adhesive vinyl car sticker from Canadian Tire and Molotow chrome pen used for brightwork. Check out the luxurious thick pile carpeting & wood applique! This 1979 Cadillac Coupe deVille replica from Donnie Brasco was completed in the summer of 2022, while I finished the '77 and '78 Caddy during the spring of that year. Now I need to find a Lincoln from that time period to compare & see if the Caddy got more acceleration, more power, better handling, & more legroom than a Lincoln like Al Pacino says in the opening scene.

1977 Cadillac Coupe deVille
RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA replied to RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA's topic in Model Cars
@RomanII Interesting observation! When comparing the JoHan interior door panels to the actual car it looks like the front armrests are correct because they're longer than the rear armrests, so those are for the two door. However the wood applique on the door panels should be as long as the front armrests. For some reason JoHan did their carving for the wood applique much shorter than they should be. -

You'll see a glue stain on the windshield and that's from the original builder. The car was partially assembled and unpainted when I bought it, and so I took apart whatever I could and restored the car. This Revell kit is the Skip's Fiesta Drive-In version.

The car is a two door full-size retractable hardtop convertible, manufactured and marketed by FoMoCo. It's a Revell kit with multipart body which allows the builder to paint the car in two tone easily if one wishes to without the need to use masking tape. A few parts were scratch-built including the extension for the rear bumper that was made from a Coca Cola can. The spare tire came from the '62 Buick Electra kit. The side windows were made from a clear plastic packaging that contained a 1/43 scale Greenlight die cast car. The window sills are strips of Trim Brite Chrome Brite sold at Canadian Tire.

1981 and half Dodge Charger 2.2
RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA replied to RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA's topic in Model Cars
Thank you everyone for the compliment! Much appreciated! @Chuckyg1Unfortunately these Charger 2.2 kits are not that easy to find. Perhaps that's why we don't see many built. If Round2 reissues this kit with fresh decals then chances are more people will build it. @drodgThanks for the info about the Collectible Automobile magazine article. Will check it out! -
@AMT68Thanks! I would love to build a Heritage Edition one day. I do have Bosley's '79 Tbird from Charlie's Angels that I need to finish.
