...excellent, now remember what we said about that Sun Star - don't be surprised to see loose parts or assembly mistakes.    I wish YOU the best of luck.  👍

@modeldadeeee     I assumed that top white box contained a 1/18 Sun Star 1956 Lincoln - sold through the Danbury Mint.   BUT - I suppose that it could also be a Danbury Mint 1/24 1956 Lincoln.

Or.... it could just be an empty box.  😉 😉

Looks really good ! The SunStar diecast models I own have been universally excellent. The one time a '60 Plymouth was missing a headlight lens, my dealer confirmed it was sent out from SunStar's local representative immediately at no charge.

My only SunStar is the '39 Horch 855 Roadster and I am very pleased with it.

@gdh 

I went gaga when that model was released decades ago. I got it at a model show down in San Diego and on the way back to Orange County I’m glad I wasn’t driving because I took it out of the box and just was enthralled with the model and how well detailed it was.

@100ford2003  When Chris learned I was going to get one of those he told me to look for the black with black spokes, instead of the chrome wheels.  I had a look at all of the color combos and he was right.  This one is the best.  Mine is less than 38" from my left arm and I look at it every day.
