(Pics) 1955 Packard Caribbean
From some years back, this is Yat Ming's '55 Packard Caribbean, here with a blackwashed grille and an up-top from a 1950 Maisto Ford.

Unbelievable photos, as usual! The #2 photo seriously looks like a 1:1.

LOL, thanks, all ! In the past, it seemed YM would, on a number of occasions, also eventually do a top-up edition, or even an add-on hardtop release, like the '58 Cadillac. Yet, in more recent years, that hasn't seemed to have been in their plans.
A plastic top-up version would perhaps be easier, so I would love to someday see one of this Packard, as well as the '60 Chrysler 300, the '53 Packard, the '52 Lincoln and, conversely, maybe a convertible edition of the 1964 Marauder !
