Awesome model(s)!  The only thing I question is that white interior's dash & steering wheel. Having owned a few '60's GM white interiors myself, I've never seen any with a white dash & wheel.  I'm 99.9% certain they should be black.   Does anyone know for sure?

In a previous review of this car, it was discovered that the badging for Wildcat on the rear quarter panels were upside down. This is also visible in this video. Sergio responded he would fix this, what happens when you have purchased one from another dealer? I haven’t purchased one yet since I don’t know what I will get and how it will be corrected. This is not a minor flaw.

It depends on the dealer. Sergio agreed to replace my shipment with corrected cars, and I am going to send them out to my customers at no cost when I receive them. Fortunately, the error was caught before I shipped too many!

What a great-looking Buick Wildcat from Goldvarg ! This car and 1/43 replica are particularly attractive vehicles and are real jewels here in small scale
