Nitromethane Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 This 1:24 scale 2002 Cadillac CTS sedan by Jada came my way at a yard sale for a mere two bucks. Yes, there were some issues with the paint having some scratches and nicks and there were a few missing parts. However, the model really appealed to me and still does after its "upgrading". Actually looks better in hand than in photos, too. The interior seats were painted, carpeting was added to the floor, and front turn signal and running light units installed. A custom rear wing was fabricated out of glossy black laminated card stock. Out back, a custom high performance exhaust extension hooks up to the exhaust muffler by way of an angled aluminum tube. Vintage chrome-plated side mirrors from the parts bin complete the low-slung sedan. Thanks for looking...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyc Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I do wish I could get these with stockish wheels. But then the rockers would still be cartoonish. But I like it still. nice car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I've never seen the Jada version.....the Revell plastic kit, which was going to be a die cast, looks almost the same. My Revell build as a movie car......I changed wheels/tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
