Description

What the model shows

This set recreates a Cadillac from 1913, the era of open-bodied touring cars with tall, upright proportions. It is built from 200 pieces in 31 different types, which is a modest range for the size. Plenty of bricks appear several times over, so the finished car has clean, readable lines. Building a car from that period means working with simple shapes, and the set shows how far basic bricks and a few special elements can go.

A limited palette

Black, red and yellow make up the main colours, with trans-clear parts standing in for glass. That restrained mix is typical of mid-seventies sets, which got by with a few core colours, and it suits a historic vehicle well because nothing distracts from the outline. The parts list on this page shows every colour and quantity, so you can compare it with your own collection before deciding whether the set is worth hunting down.

Made for collectors

A set from 1975 appeals mostly to collectors who want the early Hobby models complete on the shelf. This car is not a toy with moving features but a model to look at: you build it once with care, put it on display and enjoy the straight lines. The lack of minifigures fits that idea, because the car stands alone as the centrepiece and needs no scenery around it to make its point.

Reusing the parts

Even if you never plan to rebuild the car, the parts list is useful. Most of the elements are classic standard shapes that combine easily with many other sets. The "What can I build?" tool on this page checks which pieces from your own collection already fit and which models you could make from them. That turns the list into a planning aid for your own vehicles, whether you want to change the design or repeat it in entirely different colours. Seeing exactly where the gaps are saves a lot of guesswork before you start.
