Beautiful Lincolns 👍 I like old cars and their models. They breathe nostalgia and memories of the good old days.

Thanks to both of you. Having returned to the hobby at the start of lockdown I've stopped again until we finish house moving. Models, especially WIP, are too delicate. These are to a level I see as good enough (for me).
Album info
Finished versions. Bought this as an Airfix kit when I was about 8 or 9, so about 55 years ago. At the time it was the most impressive model I'd built. So, slowly returning to the hobby I thought I'd seek it out again. The yellow one is a more recent MPC re-issue. The moulds show all the signs of having been very well used. The dark red (maroon?) one is an original Airfix that had been partially started. Both needed quite a lot of work to get the parts to fit but the MPC still doesn't look quite right. The top cowl/bonnet parts have flattened so that the coach line doesn't line up with the line on the body. Good enough for me as a return subject and a bit of nostalgia. Not a subject I have much affection for other than a trip down memory lane.
