1958 Cadillac Seville

That is beautiful work!

All that hard work paid off.  That's a beautiful model.

This is absolutely beautiful.  I too like the auto dimmer, a feature that is period correct and adds a sparkle to the car. I have that feature on my 1:1 Convertible Lincoln (a '62) but mine is mounted in the center of the dash above the radio. I've never checked to see if it works.

I had a '57 Chevy convertible with that dimmer setup; it was spotty in operation...a reflection from a bright object would dim the headlights.

As I mentioned before, it was spotty (sometimes erratic) in operation. Also, my '57 Chevy sensor appeared to be a bit smaller that the one shown of the Caddy model. 

Just for giggles, you might want to test yours (on the 1:1) out, unless you're concerned about the age and possible harm that might be incurred.

Wow, that turned out great, and it sounds like you had to fight it all the way, that's some great execution.

[Slotto]

Spot on. With a different background, i'd swear she's real!

[Snake45]

Beautiful work, and that color really screams '50s! Well done!

[Zoom]

Looking great!

[High octane]

Very nice build.
