yellowsportwagon Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) MPC latest issue built box stock aside from vinyl top and wheel change. Those hubcaps were terrible. Edited September 1, 2022 by yellowsportwagon 12
rsmodels Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 It's newer than what I usually build but it got my attention. The details, colors, and build quality are striking!
espo Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 You really captured the look of the era. The body-colored vinyl roofs were a common styling trend at the time. The Silver color with the dark red interior was also considered desirable at the time. I think the even offered wire wheel hub caps as well. The trim is all cleanly done and the paint finish looks great.
Oldcarfan27 Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) Maybe grandma hated it, but I love it! For what it's worth, my grandma would've loved riding in one of these limousines back in her day. (She didn't drive) Where did those wheels come from? They're perfect for this car.

Johan 65 Cadillac optional wire wheels. Look more like hubcaps then wheels
carrucha Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 Cool build. The silver body and red interior look nice.
TransAmMike Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 Looks great Tim. The real one was probably a comfy highway cruiser.
bogger44 Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 Super sharp, those wire wheels really set it off.
AMT68 Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 Great looking Caprice and the color combination is perfect for the era. I'm currently working on an older release of this kit and even though I'll probably use them I agree with you on the wheel covers.
Plowboy Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 One of the best examples of this kit that I've seen! The wire wheel covers really makes the model along with the vinyl top. Nice work!
gks1964 Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 The interior really works great with the silver body!!
mustang1989 Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 Love what you did with this car. Beautiful work indeed.
