I like the effect but unfortunately dislike the Cadillac underneath that nice trim. Cadillac fans should love it.

Don't like the Caddy and hate wood sides on cars.

Not particularly crazy about the 1/1 but I do have a 1/43 scale model of it which I like a lot.

I initially was very lukewarm to the 1:43 version but bought it anyway because it was so unusual.  Now that I've had it for nearly a year I really like it and would certainly feel the same about the 1:1.

I love it ! A great Cadillac, now in station wagon form and with tasteful wood-style trim. A big, solid people or item mover with a luxurious ride and combined with Cadillac's really nice '56 design.

I usually dislike Cadillac wagon conversions, to me they appear more like a professional car. That's not the case with this, maybe it's the color and the wood trim. I'm liking this one.

I was always very cold to expensive cars having station wagon models.  Today I'm bothered by Cadillac and Lincoln having SUV's.  Buying an expensive car to haul junk in just doesn't seem right.  That's why we had Chevy's, Ford's, Plymouth's, etc.  JMO.

Nice looking station wagon conversion, but I think I would like it better without the "Squire" option.

I think of Packard, Chrysler, and other high-end wagons as the cars that a fancy resort would use to transport guests and their luggage to and from the train station. I think that's how the term "station wagon" arose!

I prefer the wires and the color of the second.

That is an interesting theory.  I've never heard that before or thought about station wagons in that vain.  Makes sense though.
