@perrone1   I appreciate the effort you are expending to fix my hiccup and definitely sit back and take a deep breath when needed.  It won't upset the earth's axis if it remains in the wrong forum for a day or so.

I threatened it by divulging where it was last week and who it spent time with - that did it; moved!

@perrone1   Thank you, Tony, and can we change the title to Rolls Royce Swept-Tail?  Without any info from the seller I opted for what I thought it was, but this is not an EV.

Done; easy fix. That, actually, the poster can do. Hit edit under the first post of the thread and change it being sure to hit save. You're good to go. Cool

What a cool model. I think this bronze would compliment the interior. JMHO though. 😁

@perrone1   Thank you, Tony.  I will endeavor to avoid a repeat of this screw-up.

@geno  I played with Copper and Bronze and I will have to see what paints I can find, before I make a decision, but that is a nice option.  Merci.

@geno   No wonder it looks so fine.  I will have to ask Geoff what model he has.

@gdh here's mine. Had it for a few years and cannot remember makers name. It just says XLG underneath. It really is an excellent replica of an iconic late model car. OK not mint details but still fine in a display case. Dash is poorly detailed and yes Geno I'd say it is smaller than 1/24 are the negatives. Beautiful rich dark blue color.

@geoff-jowett

@geoff-jowett   Smaller than 1/24?  That's disappointing.

Here are my options for paint, in the TS group, and I am leaning toward either Light Tan - TS46, Wooden Deck Tan - TS68, Metallic Gold - TS84, or Champagne Gold - TS75.  I have to consider the interior color, so these colors seemed the best.  Thoughts?

I would go with the Champagne Gold.  It would be a good match and look stunning against the Black.

I'm with Pete, here's a 1/25 Cadillac kit model I've painted Champagne Gold. It's a really nice 'car color'
