Now THIS is a ride I've been hoping someone would cast...

It rounds out a collection of GM's original personal-luxury vehicles perfectly. The original diecast used as a master has rectangular headlights which don't seem to fit in with the model year of the rest of the car, but I think I'm gonna try putting pin heads on to replicate round headlights.
Thanks Claus!!! :thumbsup:

Hey Rick, That is a nice car.:thumbsup: Where/Who did you get the body from? I want to get one of those for my Dad. He thought it was the best car he ever bought and believe me he bought lots of them... Looking good....

Hi, great car. Think it`s one from Claus Heupel ?.
Due to the rear I think it`s a 76 Cadillac Eldorado, so the rectangular headlights are correct- up to 75 with round headlights- ( I selled my 76er Cadillac Convertible some years ago , great
8,2 ltr. front drive engine for a smooth highway ride ).http://www.southern500.de/Eldorado-front1.jpg

Exactly, Satellite... it's from Claus Heupel, whose web site is here:
www.c-jet500.de.vu
Warning, Jeff... some of the pages on his site are VERY big and take a LONG time to open. Pics are great, but it's all in German... any questions email him. He's a nice guy to talk to about slots. Sometimes he sells his casts outright, but he prefers to trade for Tjet stuff...

Hey Rick, Thanks a bunch for the link. I got to look at his site while at work so I didn't notice any problems (cable modem access). But when I got home and used dialup, man does it take a while for those pictures to load...:D Anyway, I sent him an e-mail so I can get one...:thumbsup:

Looks excellent there, Park--
The white-walls really make the look (what's a Caddy without em'?)
I love the colour too.
Claus is a great guy. We used to interact over on another board. He thought I had stock in the"Bare Metal foil Co." because of so many cars I foiled!:p
Keep em' coming Park! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Cheers!
