@jcarnutz Thanks for your outstanding pictures and to everybody who also posted some. I am now convinced I have to add this jewel to my very small collection. This will be a nice companion to the 1938.

@larry-kemling I would disagree - the larger a model is, the better able to add small details like thin pinstriping. Much harder in 1/43, so a comparison to 1/24 lacks validity.

@mg-harv I believe pin stripping in 1/43 scale can be done because the new GLM 1978 Cadillac Eldorado have them.

Packard 1934 is an iconic car, best of the best of the 30's, and the Automodello rendering is accurate and beautiful. I have the dark blue and red versions and they are both stunning.
