Just got this one delivered yesterday. I usually do not collect 1/64 but had to have this one. The detail is impressive for a 1/64.I hope that there are more 1950s in street form to come. This model is also now available in race livery.

Very nice and as you say, so detailed for being so small. It must be a charm to see 'in the flesh'.

What a great-looking Lincoln ! It sure seems like a superb addition to any collection and the color scheme here is excellent.

Yes, these great looking yellow versions show slight improvements over the initial black releases. Those goofy  fender "dots"  are now gone, and the rims (although still wrong ) look much better chromed vs. silver paint. The interiors are still a bit weird (all black w/high-back buckets & side supports ). Nothing is a deal breaker, though, as these Lincolns are VERY nice.

I will be getting the Pan-American Road Race version but will have to cut the skirts out; I assume other liveries will follow. 

I sincerely hope other year Lincolns follow, they can correctly be Road Race too, but I'm not certain we'll see other 1950's cars. HOPEFULLY I'm wrong. 😏 😏

Very nice Ken. These 1/64 models are starting to surpass in detail the 1/43 models produces in the 1990s.

Good to hear you received this model Ken. I've had it on order for a couple of months so I'm hoping it will arrive soon. Your pictures look great.
