Very good! Is that the old Johan kit?

Sure looks like the Jo-Han one. I never had that kit, Caddys just didn't make sense to me then. Now, I can enjoy the nostalgia of the land yachts!
I could only offer one suggestion on this one, a thin "wash" of flat black on the grille. Otherwise, excellent!

Yes it is a Johan.
The grill now has a flat black wash, I have a Miller-Meteor plate on the front bumper and some of the chrome foil has been replaced. Next will be detailing the Cadillac emblem on the hood and re-painting the front side marker lights. They should be white not yellow.
I took the pictures first so I could see the model better and decide where to do the upgrades.
I never cared much for the Caddy models, but now I like them because they are so different. I am working on a conversion of the 1959 Ghostbusters ambulance to a coroners wagon.

Looks great. I do not think I have ever seen one built as a hearse before. Have one in my stash, but is destined to be an ambulance. Go figure!

Now there is one you don't see very often. It actually looks like a nice model. Thanks for posting it.

I got the updates done. This is how it looks now. The passenger side tire really does touch the ground. I didn't notice my poster board had a wrinkle lifting up the passenger side.  |
