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.

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.

It's a good thing that Stamp provided us with a Coupe de Ville

@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.

But I traded it to a friend so he could put it in this:
