The year extremes, FMs 1910 and WCPDs superb 2003 Cadillac Sixteen Concept.

Heres the bulk of them, in my Cadillac/Packard wall display case. There's 19 FM/DM in here, most you would be familiar with:

g9

Automodellos:

g10

Couple of 'short lived' 1/24 spells from other scale manufacturers. NEOs 1949 Series 62 Club Coupe, the large, possibly out of scale headlights always worried me on this model. Also NEOs 1933 Phaeton.

g6

And Esvals 1928 Cadillac 341A Town Sedan. Stunning model, such a shame both Esval and Neo gave up 1/24.

There's actually 6 1/24 diecast makers presented, with only Automodello still producing. There's at least 4 DMs I'd love to add, both 1960s, the 54 Grey Coupe and the top of the list 1932 blue Fleetwood. Also FMs 2 tone blue repaint of the 1932 V16 Elliot Ness Phaeton, and the beautiful 1930 D4C version of Capones car. And the real Capone reproduction, Esvals 1928 Capone Town Car version.

Here's the couple of 1/24 Italeri 1933 Town Cars I've made and also the 1966 Coupe De Ville, I'll get started on shortly.

g12

I could say I have at least one model from each decade, between the 1910s and the 2000s, bar the 1970s, if I 'crib' a bit and say the Atllante covers both 80s and 90s. Gotta be a 70s Cadillac 1/24 kit out there somewhere!

so pleased to do so Geno, and thanks Tony and John. 

Caused me once again to lament the 1/24 scale situation. Quality manufacturers only giving 1/24 a 'passing glance'. Yet in Europe/Japan we have Hachette and all the related brands, Edicola, Altaya etc turning out generally medium quality stock, at very cheap prices, seemingly weekly. And as I've mentioned many times here in Australia DDA are turning out early Mint quality models of local cars and appear to be thriving. I dunno!
