A modified JADA Nightmare on Elm Street 1/24 Caddy. I removed the mis-shapen convertible top and hand made a boot. Then switched out the massively oversized wheels and tires and replaced them with '53 Eldo wire wheels and tires. I still need to do some minor detailing. Thanks for checking it out guys. 😊
It started out like this.
And now.

Good workmanship as always! Though the JADA model is not on par with Danbury's (Pontiac shown), they certainly were examples of 1958 excess with chrome. Thanks for sharing Geno.

Thanks guys. The '58 has always been my favorite 50's Caddy. This is the only 1/24 diecast of one so I had to have it. I knew I could make it better.😊

I considered buying this model many times but never pulled the trigger. Your results say I made a mistake.

@bob-jackman Bob, it's not a half bad model. A little work goes a long way in making it even more presentable.😊💯
