Yes, I have the white one too. Lovely model. Thought your Broadmoor pic was the actual car!

Amazing 1:43s. Such detail and the script and logos aren't oversized like a lot.

PIC: I have a 1937 Cadillac Broadmoor car in my collection.

I also have the 1956 and 1959 Broadmoor models. Love them all.

Thanks for posting these Harvey... I knew of the GLM '59, but I was unaware of the Automodello

Those two will go on the list!
Cadillacs and wagons are my favorite genre for collecting, so these are all must haves!

Thanks Joe... I was unaware of the Automodello model.

I find it difficult to get enough light on these 1/43 models...this is my solution (pic)

I have an overhead light (not seen in pic) and a light on both sides of the model, which I prop up at an angle.

Ben, I bought my '37 Broadmoor car directly from the Broadmoor Gift Shop on line.

They might come up on an auction site now and then but you might try the Broadmoor to see if they are still selling them.

I've just looked and the green one is listed at $120...

under the Shopping tab. Hope this helps.

When I bought mine, the cost with shipping worked out to be...

...about $145, so either they lowered the price or charged me a lot to ship. They did throw in a little Broadmoor note pad and some literature about local attractions. As stated, unless you find one at auction, the Broadmoor is the only place you will get one. The Automodello website shows it as sold out.

I have the same issue and solution. I also find using a tungsten light setting improves the white balance greatly and keeps the yellow out of underexposed images.
