Thanks Art (Chugman) | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Former Member

Art posted this photo a week ago on the Weekend Photo Fun Thread.

I was immediately drawn to it for the following reasons.

1. Really nice photo of his downtown Spencer.

2. I love models of Cadillac's.

3. I love the 50's decade of cars.

4. Yellow is my favorite color.

So I contacted Art to get the details for this model. He sent me close up photos and the manufactures details. I was able to locate a seller and this past Saturday the yellow Caddie arrived in the mail box. What a nice addition to the layout. Many thanks to Art for his help.

Brian - That's great! I love it's new home. It's also hard to find die-cast cars with the convertible tops up, especially ones that are in our era.
