A step back in model years to an early DM issue. This model was released in 1999, now 22 years ago. It has been a part of my collection for that long and remains on my favorite 50 models list.

One of DM's best without debate.  I have this Black Beauty and I also have the Green version.  Absolutely two of the most incredible models in my collection.  Great photos John!  Only seeing the real model is better, but your pics bring it to life.  THANKS as always for your Daily Doses.

What George said. George this model just made it into your age restricted collecting parameters.

I love this Cadillac! Looks great in black with the vermilion rims and 3/4 caps. I hoped DM would produce other body styles of the '41 Caddy but that never happened. Great pics of course.

John I agree with you. The 41 was my favorite pre war Cadillac in any body style.

It's an older tech model for sure. That said, it still has quite an elegant presence.

My favorite 1:1 collector car for many years. I probably toured with it about 10,000 miles or so.
