@mg-harv I have the Gray Wolf. A wonderful "delicate" model. A friend gave me another of the same model but the tires had disintegrated. Would love to find replacements.
@bob-jackman Yes, those wheels (and those on the Miller Golden Submarine) are very fragile. Phil Alderman shipped these models with the wheels unattached. I have never permanently affixed mine.
@michel-lemieux 1953 Packard limousine spotted a a local car show a few years back. Nicely restored conservative car compared to the Cadillac.

Packard picked the wrong merger partner with Studebaker. Hudson, with its similar commitment to engineering excellence, would have been a much better fit. Those 2 companies together could have covered a wide price range of the car market with high-quality products.

@bob-jackman, John Kuliak sent a suggestion, "Phil Alderman used O-rings as tires on those models, so maybe Bob can find replacements at a local hardware store or plumbing supply house."

And a few more almost Packards. A circa 1967 Chaika limousine with opening doors. One is labeled on the base plate Autotime Collection and the other is in unknown Russian.
And a earlier Russian ZIS 110 limousine circa 1946-49 (?) which closely resembles a Packard of an earlier era. No base plate information on the maker.
