1937 Packard Art-Carved Flower Car by Mesquite Models (#P21)

Here is another of Jerry Rettib this series from my friend Ken's Packard collection.

Mesquite Models are transkit based on Solido 1937 Packard under the Enchantment Land Coachbuilders label. They 1/43 resin handbuilt models by Jerry Rettig, based in Tuscon, Arizona.

A series of pace cars and of hearses/limousines (professional cars) were made. From just a few to 50 were made of each model.

The 37 Packards used the Solido 37 Packards as parts donors..
