1962 Cadillac Coupe DeVille, pics.

Hi guys.
Hope everyone's doing good. Here's my last build, this is a very rare 1/25th scale R&R Resin kit of a '62 Coupe Deville I have since at least a decade. It is pretty well converted from the Fleetwood 60S by JoHan, with new door , correct new B pillar and roof. I had poorly painted it with a saturated turquoise blue back then and had never been happy with it. Needed a good restauration. So, I offered the Cadillac a new two tone dress, as close as "Pompeian Red Metallic" with an off-white top. Black and white interior with black carpeting. Painted accent hubcaps and new hand made chromed V crests. Hope you'll like it. Thanks !

Very nice build....

... in my decades of model building, I did many JoHan models. Wish I'da kept them all. Your skills are impressive. Please post more of them.
