avidinha Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 I built this from the Imex kit. I lowered the suspension and used some 3d printed wheels and tires I got on eBay. It had some fitment issues, but it ended up building into a nice model. 5
ea0863 Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 I LOVE the rims! They totally give the car its character.
TransAmMike Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 Very cool and perfect color scheme. Great job Andrew?
NOBLNG Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 I’m not normally a fan of lowriders…but this one I REALLY like! It just looks COOL. ?Great job Andrew.
Lunajammer Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 I respect your choice to not chrome the ridges in front of the rear wheels. Doesn't need it.
Bainford Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 That turned out great. Love the look. I’m not usually a fan of big wheel cars, but that Caddy is cool. It’s looking wicked in black, too. Very nicely done.
Maindrian Pace Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 Beautiful build, everything just works so well on that package. Looks like it could be a Kindig car.
Zippi Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 Yeah, those wheels & tires really make the Caddy. Black & red always looks good together. Great build.
FLHCAHZ Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 I agree with the others. Very nice Caddy, the wheels are great (and I am also not a fan of low riders).

Jon Cole Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 Possibly the first time I have seen this kit built as a jaw dropper.
Koellefornia Kid Posted April 7, 2022 Posted April 7, 2022 Wow, that's a mean looking Caddy! The black paint is perfect for it and those wheels are gorgeous!
Perspect Scale Modelworks Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 Very nice '58. I was just looking at those wheels on ebay. Did they take much cleaning up and what did you use to paint them?
