A great look at this Stamp 1/43 cadillac replica what a beautiful car and model of it. Right now, my 1963 Cadillacs are in 1/18 scale. l think this one is a stunning knockout of this car and as a 1/43 replica.

1961-1967 is when Cadillac made cars I loved. Thanks for the vid, JK.

.....another great model but I question the wide-whites. Why? 🤔 🤔 🤔

Another outstanding miniature from Stamp. I normally like my convertible models with the top up but in this case I chose the top down so I could see the interior detail. My model is the Brewster Green and with all Stamp/GLM models the paint is flawless. Thanks for the review John.

@bob-jackman I got the Brewster Green color as well. I usually buy top down convertible models but this time I went with the top up because of how striking the color contrast is. It looks great on display; really stands out.

@bob-jackman Yes for sure Bob and it is done quite well; the finish isn't too shiny.

Thanks, gents. I do believe the Stamp finishes are better than factory.

@lloyd-mecca Cool! Please post pics, I'd love to see it - I'm sure many others would too. IMO, Jack's "all green" version is stunning! 👍 👍 👍

@lloyd-mecca Much improved and of course, period correct. I'm not certain why Stamp couldn't have done this - even if was about "costs" (which it usually is ) no doubt collectors would've paid just a bit more for "the proper look." 🤔 🤨
I would've tried to thin-down the whitewalls on the existing tires (as I've done several times ) but since you swapped tires, I can only suggest you take a black Sharpie marker or paint, and go around the OD (outer diameter ) of those beautiful chrome rims; this will help to disguise the oh-so-tiny gaps as a result of the new tire rim openings being just a hair too big. 😉 😉
Overall, however, great work! Now your '63 Cadillac looks like a "1963 Cadillac!" 👍 👍 👍

I like the wider whitewalls on this model. It’s not period correct, but if I owned a 1:1 I’d switch them to the wider ones.
