I just finished it after several months of work. First Johan kit i have ever built. I am impressed of the quality, detail and fit. Its a mid 1960s kit it is built from. Several aftermarket parts added. They are beutiful cars. I have a Johan 1931 V16 Cabriolet kit to im going to build.

That's a thing of beauty! I got to see several examples of the real car last summer, at the Auburn, Cord, Duesenberg Museum in Indiana. I loved those old Johan kits,they did cars the other manufacturers never produced.

Thanks everyone! I enjoyed the build there were a few minor fit issues but nothing big at all. I used Tamiya pearl green metallic and rust oleum gloss black. And Testors gloss wood for lower part of rear part of body. I love these cars. They are impressive and the V16 engine is quite unique.

What a beautiful Cadillac, and that engine is awsome. I like the full roof on this better than the open cockpit, well done Matt.

Cheers,
