PICs - Daily Dose of Diecast... Friday
Continuing with Cadillac week...
This is a favorite of mine, old tech for sure, but this model definitely has a presence. I have all three colors and would have gotten any others issued if they had done them.
1953 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible
-Issued by Franklin Mint in 1991
-Alpine White

This one and the red version are parked in my display. I was hoping for a black version with.......
a red interior but as we all know that never happened. Great pics of course.

53 Repaint
I'm thinking of having one of these repainted yellow with a black interior and top. What do you think guys?

My first ever die cast leading to a life long addiction.

I have this same model too. The lid is missing though, that bugs me some.

Has been since 1991 when I bought mine, one of my favorites. FM was still doing it right.

1:18 version by Danbury
I do have the 1:18 white 1953 Eldorado, on it's base, on my firepace mantel - always a conversation starter!

John, I have the Danbury issue, too. Actually, it's 1/16th scale. Odd size if you ask me.

(PIC) I have the 1:16, too. Luv it.
