First sighting of Greenlight 1/43 1941 Godfather Lincoln Continental
Cons: too thick chrome around the windows, chrome at the bottom side windows, turning lights on front fenders drooping forward.
Pros: Only available coupe model in scale; Low price.

Interesting! Thanks, Jay. (later) I just looked at the multiple dealers on Amazon and didn't find it. Still too early, I guess. But I did see the '55 Cadillac sedan at a good price, so I can start watching for the mailperson soon! Thanks again!

I believe Rio made a coupe, though it was some years ago.

Rio made a very strange looking coupe that did not resemble the production model
I have a resin model, possibly by Victory models, It looks like it was based on the Rio but with the correct roof. Premium X, Minichamps, Whitebox have all manufactured convertibles and I wish they had offered a coupe(or at least a top up)., The Greenlight looks toylike but I will buy it.

Rio also made a top down convertible.

And a top up version - royal blue, white top.
