Lincoln
If you download SunStar's 2014 catalogue you will find a photo of a black 1:1. I am shure that I'll purchase it.
This is the SunStar photo:

See, that's what I thought Ned but we seem to have compelling evidence to the contrary.

I posted this pic (different angle) also. It's used on Supercar's website.

Can anyone offer 100% confirmation. Two door ...OR.... FOUR door 1958 Lincoln?

I Ordered one from Diecastmusclecars & they said I would have time to cancel were it not a 4 door.
They stated and stand behind the fact it is to be a 4 door & will refund or cancel anyone who expected a 4 door if it turns out to be a 2 door. Their words by phone today

Outstanding David! Did everyone read this? It looks like a 4-door MIGHT be on the way; great news!

1958 Lincoln
Oh joy, now is it hoping too much for them to use this opportunity to get the roof right?

Yes, if the FOUR DOOR news is true, Sun Star has a fantastic chance to improve that WINDSHEILD!

Alot of times Sun Star shows pics of actual cars with are similar to the future model. My bet is that the model is just a repaint of the 2-door in black and not a new tooling.

Well, They have it listed in "coming soon" and the numeral and letters written in parentheses next to 1958 Lincoln Continental hardtop are (4-door) so.... It would be an all new tool, body wise anyway. I may have to give this one a shot. I like the thought of a Black 58 Lincoln hard-top parked next to my white convertible. The thought of a 4-door hardtop with corrected windshield is almost irresistible.
If it is a 4 door hard top or indeed just a re-paint, I think I'm still in. I love black Lincolns'
Does anyone know if Legacy is going to offer the car? Most likely huh.
