Here's three models from the 40s in photos that were taken a few years ago, never posted.
1940 Packard One-Sixty Super Eight Touring Sedan - from Rextoys in Miami Sand
1941 Plymouth De Luxe Convertible Coupe - from Durham Classics in Antique Cream
1948 Pontiac Torpedo Eight De Luxe Silver Streak Convertible Coupe - from Conquest Models in Frances Ivory

Those all look excellent and in great colors, too. I have one of the really nice Rextoys Packards, although it is in a maroon color.
Lol, I have a 1940 Packard limousine in the wonderful light beige/sand color, but it is from Signature in 1/18 scale. They are beautiful and impressive automobile and replicas.

Excellent group. I've posted this before but here's my rendition of what one can do with the Rextoys Packard.

John, those are nice models. I did not know that Conquest did a 1948 Pontiac convertible.

That 41 Plymouth is awfully fetching!

I have the Rextoy Packard in blue without the side mounted tires, the Plymouth from Durham in yellow top down and the Pontiac from Conquest exactly as shown. Great pictures and grouping John.

@frank Frank - I just saw a top up version like yours go for big bucks at the Lloyd Ralston auction.
