This is a 1941 Cadillac, Series 62 Convertible Coupe in miniature. I had hoped to had purchased a 1/64 scale figure for this miniature before now. The miniature figure is a heavy set gentlemen (listed as a cab-driver). I had also planned to add a policemen standing aside the vehicle writing a ticket. Well, I will have to put that on my list of purchases for this year.
This blog is mainly a place where I can record my current interests. It is also a place where I can showcase my current projects, obtain inspiration, keep track of suppliers, and the many other little things that make-up who I am and what I am presently about.

Highway Miniatures 1940 Ford Standard Sedan
Here is another Highway Miniatures polystyrene model vehicle in 1/87 scale. There are two sprues with a set of delicate parts that include a clear window insert and a detailed engine. Including an engine indicates that the model can be modeled with the hood up or closed. I will be modeling this model with its hood up and with someone peering in to see what the problem might be. “FORD-fix-or-repair-daily”.
