Well done, John. I was preparing to post my own model evaluation when yours opened up. I like your presentation! Sorry, mine is just a few quick photos and a couple of typed comments. But yours. . . Just keep 'em coming!

Great review. I have the top down in black. One of the nicest

Conquest models yet.

Love the unboxing video. A wonderful way to showcase the model.

I have this one as well as one each of the first colors issued. I love every one of them. My all-time favorite Oldsmobile!

I have this one in an other scale in Black. After seeing the video, i am wondered if i should got not have this one also in our scale? Even if i am not bilingual and i don't understand everything , i appreciate these video, John. I just have to watch more than one time or find a vocal translator. There are two CNQ Oldsmobiles on my list, with the 1947 Oldsmobile. Which one i should choice the first now?

Thanks, Michel. These Starfires sell out quickly.

Michel, First of all you do much better at a second language than I do. Secondly, Route 66 just added additional colors for the 62 Starfire...check out their website. As John mentions,they sell out quickly. I also have the Starfire in 1/18 scale and they are nice models.

Thanks for your input, gents. I'm trying to make improvements.

I'm working on lighting and hope to be able to show accurate colors with the right lights.

Dancing girls in the background and suitable music would be nice.
