[Closed] Scoop: Cadillac series 62 club coupe Sedanette Neo Scale Models

Looks nice to me - assuming they use whitewalls appropriate to the era - those are from the 1960's

Harv, perhaps they are using the same tyre sets as the '60's Pontiac.

Here again, Chris, those tires from the '60's need to be replaced by the correct ones.

Looks nice. Too bad about those white wall tires....

Where do I start: The rear fender spear and the pebble guard are one piece, not two; the fog/driving lights are round on the '48, rectangular on the '49 (which one is this?); whitewalls-mentioned already, none of my reference pics show exhaust pipes, and I don't see a hood ornament.By the way, if that is a Washington, DC license plate (hard to tell), it is also incorrect. Make those changes, and I will buy it. Also, I can't find any pics of wire wheels in '48 or '49. I think that is what I see in the pics provided.

Lloyd....just as I feared. I thought that there might be some inaccuracies on this one as well. I just did not want to start looking and researching or being the one to point out more "glitches." Oh well, guess I'll pass on this one too. Thanks for the eagle eye.

Marshall, I wish we could convince the manufacturers to get our input before they showcase a finished product. If they won't do the research, why don't they listen to those who purchase and/or have the knowledge of the product?

Lloyd, I completely agree and wish I had the answer....

Your statement and question are both spot on.

Totally agree with Lloyd and Marshall

The wheels would be a "no sale" for me ...both the thin WWs, and the wire wheels (were wires available for this car?). From the photo, I cannot tell if the windsheild center trim is correct silver, or black. I'm a nut for "correct" whitewalls.

Maybe we will have to upgrade this model with wheels from another.

This near hundred dollar model will look better and more accurate with wheels and tires from a five dollar toy, the Yat Ming (Road Signature?) 1949 Cadillac convertible. Isn't that sad? But at least sombreros and wide whites can be cheaply sourced.

Neo is listening

I have forwarded links to both these topics to Neo Scale Models and they welcome all input provided.

I'm guessing here, but we might see a change in the wheels on this Caddy. They really look odd, as on a 'wrong' restauration. And for the hood ornament, it seems to be missing on this model?

So keep it coming, Neo Scale Models certainly listens to their customers. Only we (or actually, I) hadn't discovered this forum till this week.

who!

Near hundred dollar?!?!? Wow... You haven't looked around yet.
