I believe the most impressive Cadillac V16 of the 30's was the Convertible Coupe Victoria and only one has been produced. 

Stamp gave us some variations with top up or down and there is this one with the trunk delete that I prefer because it shows better the rear of the car.

Impressive, but I was never a fan of these art-deco-skirt-hubcap-treatments.... but it's not a dealbreaker.    😀   Makes a gorgeous model.

It looks superb and both the replica and the real car are extremely impressive automobiles. Real show-stoppers !

superb quality replica. Paint is worth the price of admission alone.

@chris I have the Aero Coupe in 1/18 scale. The design on this car was so far ahead of anything that was going on in 1934.

@bob-jackman Agreed... it was very advanced styling for its day.
