Here is another excellent model from some years ago. This is a GIM 1938 Cadillac V16 Town Sedan. It has an incredible interior.

This one looks fantastic ! Great paint and details here and a typically terrific Cadillac presence.This one would be certainly a knockout on display in any collection.

@mikedetorrice Indeed, this is an outstanding model. My small collection is mostly Cadillacs and Buicks and they are all resin models. Chrome cannot get any better and the badging is short of breathtaking on the older models. In some ways, I think they are sharper. Look at the V16 badges for unbelievable details.

There are remarkable and quite detailed elements on many 1/43 models, such as this Cadillac beauty. It takes nearly a magnifying glass to appreciate many features. John K's. turntable and close-ups help reveal many of these, yet collectors positive comments certainly are a great indicator, too.

Reading Mike and Nickies comments on the detail, and seeing these magnificent photographs enlarged, I was assuming this was 1/24, but returning to home page found it in 1/43 Forum ! ! !

That's a fine compliment on the level and quality of the details on this replica !
