Posted February 21, 201411 yr Hello! Recently built here such a car - Cadillac Eldorado This model is based on models Cadillac from Frederik H "Freddie"! http://www.flickr.com/photos/35521912@N03/ General views of the car: Without minifig: Yes, Cadillac turned out big and wide, but all the same it is magnificent! Thank you for your attention! Waiting for Your comments! PS: Sorry for my bad English!
February 21, 201411 yr Nice work mifody! These are on of my favorite classic cars. They're enormous, but has beautiful lines Edited February 21, 201411 yr by LEGO Guy Bri
February 21, 201411 yr nice work Mifody! can we see how two minifigures sit in car? l think "Merlin Monro" from 9 series of mf very good looking with this car!
February 21, 201411 yr Hola! Excellent work, mifody! You've nailed the shape and proportions. I want one. Or two. EvMan
February 21, 201411 yr As already written on Flickr, this car isn't "based" on Freddie's design, it *is* his design - you've just copied it. You haven't called it a MOC, but it's not even a MOD. So everything pointed out here concerning the design of the car should be addressed to the original designer.

And as I have already replied to You on flickr - Yes, it is a model from Freddie, but build from bricks. Still, it's not an exact copy of the internal design is slightly changed, also the model is presented in a different color scheme.And yet - this is the first model of Cadillac from Freddie, implemented in bricks!
February 22, 201411 yr Works really well as an 8 wide! The real cars are big ol' land yachts and you captured the scale perfectly!
February 22, 201411 yr AWESOME 'mifody'.....the front end is perfect......you only need to make a pink one so Elvis can drive his mom around in ! Brick On Drive On 'mifody' !
February 23, 201411 yr you only need to make a pink one so Elvis can drive his mom around in ! Great idea, but it's already existing. In fact pink is the original colour of Freddie's design, mifody has just changed the colour:
February 23, 201411 yr This car and driver look like they belong in Pecos, Texas where cowboy booted/hatted oilmen were not ashamed to drive their wives' pink Caddy convertibles during my childhood. My best friend's grandfather drove one, and we little kids would slide back and forth on the white leather back seat when "B" turned corners fast. Lucky to survive those rides as "B" was rarely sober, and many drives were to the liquor store for more juice. This was before US cars had seat belts. One other drawback was that the sun is fierce in the West Texas desert, and sunburn was a real problem if we were going more than ten miles. Nice model built and LDD versions!
February 23, 201411 yr Good to see this fine car In The Brick. The '50s-'60s Cadillac had the same chassis and basic frame, so this model could essentially be modified to be any of those model years, These cars are known for their large Texas-sized proportions, so the scale is quite accurate, too. Good job to both the designer and the builder. I am going to build one, too. Thanks for the inspiration.
February 24, 201411 yr They just don't make cars like that anymore! My father-in-law had an Eldorado, not a convertsble, but huge. Nice job converting LDD to bricks. Andy D
