I have the silver-blue version. The color suits the car, but is unlikely to be authentic.

Hmmm - now where have I seen that sloping rear window before?

or going back a bit further, the 1955 Mercury D528 "Beldone" concept car

That one didn't go anywhere, but the back window style was picked up by Packard for the Balboa

and of course the Predictor

I think that's enough "sloping rear windows" to keep anyone happy for a while.

I took an interest in the subject ...

while I was converting a Yat Ming '64 Mercury Marauder 2-door

into a 4-door Park Lane "Breezeway"

I ended up doing an article on reverse-slope rear windows for Model Auto Review (print edition) sometime in 2006. How pathetically nerdy can you get?

A copy (Word document) is available on request from graeme(dot)ogg(at)btconnect(dot)com

I do not anticipate my inbox will be filled to overflowing but you never can tell. Even Forum 43 is not ENTIRELY nerd-free. (Am I allowed to say that?)

Great work, as usual, Graeme. I'd love a copy of the article.
