Here are a few pictures of the 1940 Cadillac Victoria by Bowman and Schwartz made by GLM many years ago. It seems the perfect companion to the recent Stamp 1940 Cadilllac 60S but at my great surprise, they don't display well together. The 60S looks very small compared to the Victoria both in width and length. I am not sure it is really 1/43 scale. This is just my opinion.

Interesting observation Nickles. I don't know the relationship there is between GLM and Stamp but both make outstanding models very true to scale.

@bob-jackman, GLM and Stamp are essentially the same company. Stamp generally focuses on Cadillac models with a few exceptions here and there.

These are two very nice models. Bowman and Schwartz were known for giving their bodies plenty of curvature and volume and at 1/43 even the slightest change in overhang and volume could - I imagine - make quite a difference in 'look'.
