This is a hardtop '63 Cadillac done by Jada in 1/18 and slightly modified here to be more stock-looking. (trying out posting an older shot from an image-hosting site)

LOL, yeah, I guess it does look like somebody had to have been knocked off right in this seedy back-alley area, John ! 😀

It's too bad Jada didn't go the extra mile (..or two) on this one. But then again, they were aiming for kids. I bought a few of these hoping to turn one into an actual "replica."

The basics are all there: It scales out correctly, everything opens and it's cool. The interior is devoid of any detail because of the "Scarface" connection.  Tony's car was covered in leopard skin. Actually, Jada (IMO) reproduced that quite nicely. 

I suppose one could buy the 1/18 BOS 1963 Cadillac Sedan de Ville to obtain better trim & wheels and/or convert this Jada to a 4 door.

I like the "crime scene" background Mike. LoL
