Here's the 2nd of the four Russian models I bought by Century Dragon/DIP Models. Of the four, I am posting them in order of my preference. I like them all of course, just posting in order of best to least.
1949 GAZ 12-ZIM Convertible Sedan - Factory Prototype - Limited Edition, #162 of 180

This one seems to have a huge back seat area. Thanks John.

Somewhat tasteful considering it's a Russian design.

I love this one; I've never seen this 1/43 before. Gotta love the Cadillac influence! Very nice John. 😎

I read that when I did a little research, I don't quite see it. It seems that the Buick may have been some influence, but the Cadillac seems to be more prominent, especially in the shape of the front fenders and the grill.

Either way, it is a derivative design that still manages to remain distinctive. I'd love to see the interior.
