What beautiful Cadillacs and Stamp 1/43 replicas are illustrated here ! As usual, it would be difficult choosing in which color you would like to have this one in your display.

Also gorgeous - they will look great with the previously issued '59 - my reservations are in for these as well

What did GM call this body style?  The roofline looks unusual....or is it just me?

Looks like an Eldorado Brougham.

This is a repaint of the same model of a few years ago. We also got the 1959 in the same red color at the exception of having a hood ornament and some side trim and badging relocated.

Here is the 1959 .....

"What did GM call this body style?" 

- It's known as a 6-window hardtop sedan and yes, it looks a bit odd, but it's accurate - Stamp got it right.

@jack-dodds   ...you're not alone.   There were only 101 built for 1960 (99 for '59 )     

Many years ago, a fellow Cadillac collector had a chance to purchase a '59 Brougham (I saw it ) cheap, but passed on it.     Not knowing (at that time ) how few there were I was puzzled.      He explained that it was cheap  because it had a smashed windshield, "Where will I ever find another windshield?"

@chris I thought the six-window sedan designation was exclusive to the Sixty-Two series. I guess I stand corrected.

Great video thanks for sharing. Another of my memory faults (from seeing these back when they were running the roads) I thought the tail fins had small tail lights in addition to the ones below. Obviously not.
