Does anybody know what models were made for Route 66 in the Conquest Madison ranges?
Here I tried to complete a list and there are many gaps:
CON 38 1959 Pontiac Catalina Safari;
CON 39? 1959 Pontiac Bonneville Safari;
CON 46 1959 Buick Roadmaster Estate;
CON 47 1960 Plymouth Fury convertible/ 2dr hardtop;

CON 83 1959 Mercury Colony Oark Station Wagon
CON 85 1962 Oldsmobile Starfire Hardtop
?. 1956 Mercury Montclaire Hardtop;
?. 1957 Buick Century Riviera Hardtop
What indexes did these models have?
Initial Conquest range by Henk van Asten consisted of 37 models. There were also 22 models in the Madison line. Buz told that he had added 30- 40 new castings since CON 38. So I'd like to find numbers 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 48, 50, 51, 54, 55, 56, 58, 60, 62, 65, 66, 67, 68, 70, 71,62, 73, 74, 77, 78, 84 etc.

I only collect Buick and Cadillac models. I had all the Conquest/Madison Buicks many years ago.
i now have the 1950 Special Sedanette and the 1952 Super Riviera. The latter has been highly upgraded and shows far better than it was issued.
The 1952 also came as a Convertible in 2 colors as the Riviera.
Those are gorgeous models Richard. I love that tu-tone green, wow.🤑
I have these
CON-58 is the '41 Plymouth Special Wagon
CON-72 is the '42 DeSoto Club Coupe
CON-70 is the '47 Oldsmobile Series 66 Country Club

CON-73 is the '53 Buick Super Estate Wagon
CON-77 is the '55 DeSoto Coronado Sedan

@daveg I try to write a series of articles about the history of the Conquest Madison by Fa. Daumler House and Route 66. Of course I'm very interested in the photos for illustrations.
