Very happy with this new addition to my 1/43 collection! An excellent rendition of a beautiful car, and I love the color combo!

Good one, Moe. I just took mine down from its display area and looked at it closely. In my mind, this one looks as good as anything being produced today. Enjoy!

And here's the full range of the "big" Lincoln Cosmopolitans from 1949-50. The notchback and coupe are modifications of Eligor made items.

I'm not a fan of the actual Lincoln of this era but I do like it in 1:43; if that makes any sense! I must say that when I bought the dove grey Brooklin I was really impressed. I thought this color would present very blandly but I was so wrong; it was very nice. So nice in fact that I also bought the burgundy version. Lol.

I don't have anything else in my 1/43 collection in this grey color so it makes for a particularly nice addition. It's really a beautifully done model by Brooklin!

@john-quilter I was unaware of the Eligor, John. However, here's a Motor City version of the convertible (1951) in Chantilly Green.
