Does anyone know if and when Goldvarg will produce their 62? Our hobby is desperate for these early 60 Lincolns! My desperation resulted in trying to make a 65 convertible (above) without much success. The other three are of course the Lincoln/ Mercury division examples.

Hello Tim, these are very good looking models - including your own. Could you tell us more: are they white metal or resin? And when you say "The other three are of course the Lincoln/ Mercury division examples." Does this mean they are promotional models? Sadly I can't tell you about the Goldvarg issue, but someone here will.

Charles, the Mercury is a relatively recent Goldvarg issue and the 61 convertible a NEO. Both are of course resin. The 64 Lincoln hardtop is a white metal mini marque, which sadly is a little inaccurate as it is pillar less. The "creation" is a Century City white metal, which I fooled around with adding detail,wheels and top. I know Greenlight did a 1965 hardtop quite recently but I decided to pass on it.

Hello Tim,
I'd say that your '65 looks great !
Don't be so harsh on yourself !
The '61-'65 Lincolns are some of my favorites. I especially like the '63/'64.
