Here's the new 77 Lincoln Mk. Nice as expected from AW but not really one of my favorites. I might have better photos soon. The batteries in my camera died and I did not replace the immediately. Most of my setting reset to "default" and it's hard as Chinese Arithmetic to reprogram.

I'm really looking forward to this casting - I almost splurged a couple of years ago on the NEO 1/64 Mark V, but held off. That being said, I think this one really needs the contrasting landau roof to make it pop. I don't think I've ever seen one with a body color roof in real life. I'm really hoping they also do a Bill Blass version with the faux convertible top which lacks the opera window. The blue and white always looked striking to me.

The black Lincolns were supposed to show up at the same time as the blue ones November/December. Instead, I watch as each month passes and my OLD bumps up the expected arrival of the black Lincoln I ordered forever ago.
I just checked and they've bumped it up to "February Arrival" (since January ends on Monday) and there is no sign of it. Same story for several Greenlights I've pre-ordered, which keep getting pushed up.
The one that particularly annoys is the primer gray 1973 Chevelle from "Drive" that several people got shipped to them weeks ago, but my OLD now says isn't coming until "February-March".
I don't blame the OLD, which is why I'm not naming them. They want to ship ASAP because they only get paid when they ship.Comment

I hope they make one too. My Dad had a Bill Blass Edition but his was white and red. It definitely stood out in a crowd...lolOriginally posted by JBH6666 View PostI'm really looking forward to this casting - I almost splurged a couple of years ago on the NEO 1/64 Mark V, but held off.

So how does that explain you being a Chevrolet Man or does he like cars no matter what brand?Originally posted by Firehawk73 View PostDue to the recent budget cuts,

My Dad was just a car guy. I don't think he was too particular as long it was cool. I did notice he did lean towards Mopar a bit but it would be hard to tell if you didn't know him.Originally posted by Daniel View PostComment

When I was in the car business, we used to call these "Stinkin Lincolns" because we sold Chrysler. As for the black Lincoln, I bought the other cars in that set but couldn't find the Mark. I have the blue Nova and red C10 on the way. Finally, for DAN, here is the Lincoln in another setting.

Sounds like I would like your Dad.Originally posted by Firehawk73 View Post
The image file limits have been reset. Upper limits now are 100,000 when we have some images that exceed 5,000,000. I've set the pixels for no more than 1000 across the longest side, so if you resize to that all should be well. (The limits are larger than what I typically use, and my images turn out just fine, so I know it shouldn't be a problem)
Thank you for your understanding.Comment
