With the 1973 GLM Stamp Fleetwood Seventy Five now shipping, I thought I would post pics of my 1972 model in Dark Blue. Amazingly, the 1:1 car was nearly 21 feet long.

That is a very elegant model. Who manufactured it?

This one is also a GLM model from a few years ago. I believe the ‘72 was also offered in black.

What a gigantic and beautiful real Cadillac and excellent 1/43 GLM model of it ! They don't get too much more impressive than this 1:1 or replica.

That looks like a nice model. I somehow have managed to miss this model. Looked for one, I will continue to miss out. It is available in blue & black. I really like the blue, but at the asking price, NOPE!

Beautiful Cadillac limousine. Those were real limos built by Cadillac, not just a sedan chopped in half by a specialty  firm with a lengthened middle section. Very nice model.

@david-knight Yep, and these qualify as the longest regular production [assembly line vs. custom] cars ever produced in the US.
