Charlie's Cadillac STS-V

[mrmike]

This is my Cadillac STS-V built from the Revell "Uptown" kit and made into a stock vehicle.

That's a nice caddy. Nice work!

Thanks Christopher and Dave! Yes, this is a goofy kit, but after seeing two other Caddies built stock, I just had to put my own twist on one. I need to find a small briefcase for the trunk. Maybe Printable Mini's has something that I can print, fold, and add to the trunk..

This is nice too, usually don't like new cars but this is built very nicely! Paintjob looks nice, interior is great too, nice detailing all over. Only one thing, it's not your mistake or something like that, but that engine looks just a little funny... I mean it's looking like just piece of plastic, but that's how it looks on the 1:1 car, but I just know nothing from these new engines... Nice job with building!!!

Sweet lookin' Caddy Mike!

Very cool... I did the same thing with mine except its blue. Nice work.

Thanks guys!

Jeff, was yours at the Classic Plastic show last month? If it was, it was an inspiration for building mine!

Great job, Mike. As always a beautiful build.

Jeff- if that STS was yours, I remember seeing it as well. Looked great. Hopefully next year I'll have something ready for the show for a change.

Thanks Charlie! I'm pretty sure that was Jeff's Caddy at the Classic Plastic show. What do you think of the license plate? It was one that you had suggested.

Mike yeah that was mine. I am glad you liked it.

2 years ago Steve Salhany from Maine had a dark maroon one on the table which inspired me to build mine. So classic plastic must be the place to see stock STS Caddys' lol I thought Pete Wisniewski was building one too but I don't think he finished it.

Honored that you accepted my suggestion. Thanks, Mike.

Charlie, you'll have to share that honor with my wife as she had suggested the same.

I'm glad you do, Wayne!

Outstanding, and a cool wheel choice (did you change that from one of your earlier posts?).

[TheCat]

Looking good. I like it allot.

[mrmike]

Thanks Skip and Felix!

Skip, the wheels are the same, I painted the spokes with Humbrol Flat Gunmetal.
