Claude Thibodeau Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Hi! Since most Lincolns are dressed-up Fords anyway... why not imagine what a 1938 Lincoln "SUV" might have looked? Typical Lincoln grille & al. Lindberg's Vantastic, with much scratch: 1939 Mercedes looooooong fenders and molded running boards, with side skirts added, and 32 Ford front fender tips molded on, to keep a familiar look to it. Opened rear door (with Lincoln logo), complete interior with loading floor, 41 Willys' buchets, custom door panels, side-opening hood, Shelby Mustang modular engine, IRS, scratchbuilt front axle and suspension, parts box frame (heavily modified), etc. Tamya's metallic + Testor's Wetlook clear. Care to submit a "Lincoln sounding" name for it? Open to suggestions! Hours of fun with styrene! CT CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a maritime term... like the long bow of a ship? If so, it goes well along names such as Lincoln Navigator... CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Robert! Ah... I stand corrected, then. My knowledge of medieval weapons is limited, I must admit. But your idea still fits the "elongated" pointy front theme!

espo Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Great looking build. Someone in the 1:1 world might just build this. Besides the excellent body work and paint, the interior and chassis are the most impressive. I like the Ford in a Ford theme also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
