Very nice line-up! I can't see the right 25% of the photo unless I zoom out.

I had the same JB on my I pad, then I double clicked the image and it opened out to show it in full.

On my laptop, double-clicking increases the height to full size but the width stays the same :?:

Nice line up - certainly look great when displayed together.
That silver grey version is hard to spot, the closest I've come to being convinced that I've got one is the right hand model here.

Great collection, it certainly looks like you have the silver gray version on the right which in my humble opinion is one of the hardest to find. I think all mine are metallic brown, lilac and the green. The Cadillac variation subject has probably been discussed many times before on this forum. It's difficult when you try to catalog everything giving each model a variation number as their seems to be so many different ideas on whats what, especially if you can't physically see them in front of you. Different colored backgrounds with various light shades play a big part with the model/s overall color scheme, especially on the computer screen. My photo is of the same cadillac, this time with white background showing metallic brown and gpw.

Just opened my caddy's again after a few years. Have taken a better pic of the metallic light brown version with a couple of others to show the color variation, thanks to smart phone camera technology. This particular version has gray plastic wheels, pink roof and black base. I can't see it listed anywhere. Any member that can assist with this would be greatfully appreciated.
Regards !!!
