Very nice ! It is an impressive beauty from Stamp in 1/43. The real 1:1 certainly was a statement of success and the replica reproduces it wonderfully.

If you like 'em "long & low," you'll love this!

I follow Chris' thoughts, this must have seemed impossibly sleek - "long & low" in 1949.

This 1948-49 Cadillac design was well ahead of its competition IMHO.

Great model of a design that had "presence."

Wonderful model of a very elegant automobile. I have the model in a dark green metallic.

Here are a few pictures of the Stamp 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible issued a few years before the 60S. Unfortunately, the proportions were wrong, the hood was too short and the trunk shape was also questionable.
