Guest Johnny Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 That car is just plain beautiful! Great job!
Railfreak78 Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Real!! Oh wait.... Anyway Great Caddy John! I'm glad you stuck with the build even though you did not like it. My grandfather adored cars like this from Caddy and Packard. I wish he was here to show him yours. It's spectacular and beautiful.
John E. Bowers Jr. Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 John, Since Dave, Bill, an Lyle have split, you an Pete seem to be carrying this forum when it comes to flat out OUTSTANDING builds! No wonder some of the new guys feel intimidated! I KNOW your not TRYIN to, but your builds just DO IT!!! It's just amazing what you can do with plastic. It's guys like you's who inspire me! After all these years, I STILL can't do what I've seen you guys do!!!! ANOTHER fine BEAUTIFUL build. THANKS for sharein it!!! Dave, Bill and Lyle have split???! What happened?
bsoder Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Don't fall for it!..I saw John drive up to the NNL west in this :lol: that's a beauty man
Peter Lombardo Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 John, not much more to add to the accolades on this build. It looks like you could just get in and go for a Sunday drive. Stunningly beautiful. It looks like the chauffeur spent an hour waxing it before taking her out.
Greg Cullinan Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Real! This is mind blowing. Awesome model. You have talent sir. I have this kit, I think i'll wait 10 years or so to build it.
codie27 Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 WOW! I cant think of anything else to say other than stunning! Very nice.
Agent G Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 When I informed Mrs G this was a model, all she said, in her thick Chicago accent, was "Get the &&&& out of here." That says it all. G

horsepower Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 When I was but a young lad, there was a gentleman just down the street that restored these for a hobby, I can say that your model is dead on, I can remember going down every evening to see what he was doing that day. The size of these babies in person was really impressive, I can just imagine how much space yours takes up being in 1/16 scale. Keep up the great work!
davyou5 Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Wow ! I almost thought it was real! Excellent Job .
TheCat Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 That's an AWESOME looking Cadillac. GREAT job!! I have to where shades, so brightly it shines
oversteer Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 That thing is sparkling! You must be proud of this one,what a great looking build!
customsrus Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 Its real, no its a model. Wait a minute wrong section. John excellent work as usual. The paint looks a mile deep. SUPERB!!!
