Earl Scheib paint job ?

I'm sure there's meaning behind this less-than-harmony-ess-livery....and I'll bet it probably wasn't even paint but rather a decal-film-wrap.  This Cadillac model is cool, but if I remember correctly....nothing opens. 😫

That's correct @chris, unfortunately it is sealed.  Thankfully, AA seems to have gone away from that.

I have it in a medium green metallic. Your pic looks better than the model in hand.

Nice pics. I always thought these Capris made pretty good looking race cars when lowered/sectioned & widened. Those BBS (right? ) wheels never looked better. 😎

Totally agree, @chris.  The wheels on racing cars of this era are fantastic.

Another of my favorites.... these "3 box" (always a fan of 3-box car designs ) Ford Escorts look so cool is rally/race form!  😎 😎

Beautiful BMWs and fine replicas of each of them by those manufacturers. They make an excellent display together or individually.

I'm guessing this is an early to mid 1970's Maserati.  I imagine coked-up, flashy party goers, draped in polyester, rock'n out to K.C. and the Sunshine band.

exactly right @chris.  1170 Coupes & 125 Spyders were produced from 1967-1973, powered by 4.7-4.9L V8s.
