64 Caddy

[Helix]

Another oldie and my last for 2015.....

Typical Jo-Han kit, pretty basic and built straight from the box, all the parts were in good condition.

Tamiya TS-88 Titanium Silver, I've taken inside and outside pics so you get the idea

Tamiya AS-29 Gray-Green for the interior with Humbrol #150 Forrest Green for the darker shades.

The colours look good and blend well together, so that's my idea what a Caddy Convertible should look like and I'd be happy to cruise around in this !

Nice job! Johan always did make some interesting subjects as long as you are cool with building something that's not super detailed!

[Helix]

Thanks Craig!

[Sledsel]

I do not care if it is super detailed by the manufacturer or the builder, these are very cool and this one is really sharp

Good looking model. I haven't yet met a Johan I didn't like.

Those old caddy's are very cool and your build looks fantastic.

Nice model in a great colour . 

I love these old JoHan Cadillacs, mainly because they produce a few four doors

Nice clean build.......the color suits it

I did not mean to offend you Andy! I really like the less seen subjects, and I was trying to give Ray a compliment!!

Great looking Caddy, Ray.

Wow, that turned out nice!  Great use of authentic-looking colors. Thanks for listing the paints you used - it's always nice to see what other people use to finish their builds.

Nice work. One of my all-time favorite cars.

[Dann Tier]

Another OUTSTANDING build, Ray!!

No offense was taken. Was stating many simple, old tool kits make many of the detailed new tool kits look bad. Especially these old Johans. 

This kit and build looks great as is. Would not change a thing.

That's a good lookin' Cadillac! I like to see these old kits built and this is a fine example how good these old Jo-Hans look when done right. Good looking paint work and sharp BMF make this one stand out.
