A gorgeous color for this flamboyant '58 Cadillac 4-door beauty ! Presently, I have a 1/18 Yat Ming convertible and a 1/87 Matchbox sedan of this one and it is definitely a standout in any scale.
There's the word alright Mike - flamboyant! GRAT pics John!
Gotta love the '58 Cadillac Sixty Special especially in this color. Loving the pics of course.

Have it, love it. I have the model in black because I dated a girl in high school whose father had one in black . Every time I picked her up for a date I would see the car which reminded me that I needed to behave myself.
Elegant body but the lower rear trim is a bit OTT on the 1:1 and (with apologies to GLM lovers) even more so on the model.
I'd rather have a coupe de ville with its less ponderous brightwork.

@jack-dodds Same here. But, I do like John's model.

@jcarnutz Yes it is a beauty. I got the dark purple poly & white version and love it. The Sixty Special is an awesome model as well....it's just that I'm a 2-door guy.
