The 1934 LaSalle was a Harley Earl designed masterpiece, advertised as “the newest car in the world,” and was the pace car for the 1934 Indianapolis 500.

A beauty Frank. I picked one up this past weekend as well. As this is my favorite LaSalle style, and one of my favorite cars from the 30s. The LaSalle is incredible, and I have eight of the Durham models, all different colors. I can show them, but I don't want to overshadow your fine model.
Here's the Indy 500 Pacemaker the article mentions.

Two very nice models. The finish on Durhams was always superb.
