You are welcome. Motor City's '49, 50, 59 Nash/Rambler/Metropolitans are superb

True but it would not correct the issues with proportion or the absence of vital details like cast-in window trim.
Motor City's Ambassador is spot-on for length and width. If Tin Wizard got the dimensions right, their Statesman should have a 9" shorter wheelbase and overall length (about 5mm in 1:43 scale).
Everyone I know that owned Tin Wizards got rid of them when Motor City released the Ambassador. Maybe one of these eBay sellers is reading this thread and can provide measurements.
