Literally, lol. It's almost a foot long. But I love it. Plus it's the only way to get a 1/24 '56 Caddy. Its a cool and nicely detailed model. Sorry for the late post guys. I spent the day with my elderly mother, done some home repairs for her then we went to dinner. What a great and blessed day. I'm thankful to still have my momma. Thanks for looking guys. 😊Â

You are a fortunate and blessed man to still have his mom around and still spending quality time with her !
That Cadillac looks absolutely wonderful and certainly can be the focal point and star of nearly any collection whether real 1:1 or in scale model form.

Thank you Mike. It truly is a blessing. I lost my Dad to dementia in 2020. So I try to be there for Mom. She still feels lost without him. As do I. 😓Â

Cool Presidential Caddy! And God Bless your mom! I lost mine in 2012 but she made it to 98 and one month. Good health and faculties until a month before she passed. Moms are sent from Heaven!

In 1/24th scale, I'm guessing this is the biggest guy I have. The FM 1940 Duesenberg SJ Convertible Town Car.

@perrone1 Ooo, that's one gorgeous, classy ride Tony. And you are correct. Not all mothers were/are good mothers. But mine has been, and is exceptional. I pray I can keep her as long as you got to keep yours. Shes 81 right now and sharp as a tack.😇

I have the presidential limousine and the 1940 Duesenberg are both very large models. Because all of my models are on display and some are difficult to access, it is hard to know for sure which is the biggest but I'm guessing the 1978 Continentel Mark V from Automodello is the longest but the Coupe Simone is by far the heaviest

Yes; the Simone is a brick!

@ Geno
I think the 1961 Lincoln is 2mm longer than the 56' Caddy 🤓

@donderbeestje Wow, that is HUGE. I've looked at the Lincoln a couple of times, I just haven't pulled the trigger yet. 🙂

I'd say mine is the 40 Duesenberg too, because of that a bit hard to get out of the case! Another loooong one is DMs 57 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser (what a great car name!) Be an interesting site waiting at the lights with the Autobianchi!

I think this is the biggest. 3mm longer than the Lincoln. And by far the heaviest car I own. The 1939 Duesenberg Simone.
