(PICS) Roger Zimmernann's 1/12 1956 Lincoln. COMPLETELY scratch built from brass. You know.........

...you've got talent when your PROJECT (an UNFINISHED replica) is displayed (by invitation!) at an exhibit.

This model (yet unfinished) has been posted here by me numerous times over the years but it has also been the subject of MANY on-line forums and several magazines, including Hemming's.

Currently this COMPLETELY scratch built brass 1/12 1956 Lincoln Continental Mark II is on display 60 miles from Roger's home, in Switzerland.

Note: The hardtop is finished but off the model in the showcase. Also, the side windows are done and they are POWERED. Yes, power windows controlled by scale switches.

Again, on display ....in "project form."

Is there a higher compliment? I think not! Amazing..........

Didn't this same man do a Studebaker Avanti? Unbelievably impressive.

Yes and a 1/12 Oldsmobile Toronado. The man is an artist and a highly skilled craftsman. True talent
