From My Collection... Model Marathon - Day #3

Post #02

For this post, let's have just a bit of fun. We'll start with the premise; It's 1970 and you're in the market for a new car. There are a lot of possibilities to choose from and since you're undecided as to exactly what kind of car you're interested in, the choices are varied. You don't have a brand preference, so that makes your choice more inclusive as the complete 1970 lineup is in play. Now 1st, you have decided the car must lean toward the luxury end, all the new compact and smaller cars are not a consideration. So, what options does that give you. We'll be restricting our choices as to what has been offered in model form. The 1970 model year is reasonably covered, with three luxury offerings, so the choice is now yours. These choices will cover three different body styles from three different car brands. Which are you the most interested in for your new car?

The 1st choice will be from Buick and a convertible. Issued by Stamp Models in 2023, it is in Seamist Green Metallic.

The 2nd choice will a 2-door hardtop, this option pushes the luxury car offering up a notch and with a whole new body design this year for this car, a 1st rate choice for sure. This model was offered from GLM, also issued in 2023. It is in Medium Gold Iridescent.

1970 Lincoln Continental Hardtop Coupe

The 3rd option is the final body style we'll consider today. This choice is a bit more practical in offering a 4-door option, we'll keep it a tad sportier with a hardtop style. This model was also issued by Stamp Models and was released in 2024. Our choice today is in Corinthian Blue w/a white top.

So, what's it going to be? What's your mood at purchase time? I'll give you my choice later on. Have some fun thinking about it or just make your pick right away. You decide.
