1956 Lincoln Premiere Hard Top Desert Buff/Starmist White Top in 1:18 scale
This is the 1956 Lincoln Premiere Hard Top Desert Buff/Starmist White Top in 1:18 scale by SunStar.
The 1956 Lincoln Premiere Hardtop, finished in the elegant Desert Buff with a Starmist White top, was Lincoln’s all-new flagship for 1956 and represented a dramatic shift toward the sleek, futuristic styling of the mid-1950s. Its long, low body featured a wraparound windshield, sculpted side lines, modest tail fins with distinctive vertical taillamps, and an impressive 222.9-inch overall length. Power came from Lincoln’s 368-cubic-inch Y-block V8, producing about 285 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque, backed by a three-speed Turbo-Drive automatic transmission. What particularly set the Premiere apart from Cadillac, Packard, and Chrysler competitors was its combination of dramatic space-age styling, strong V8 performance, standard power windows and four-way power seat, and unusually restrained use of chrome, giving it a sophisticated appearance rather than simply overwhelming the car with brightwork.
This exquisite diecast model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish.
Other features include:
● Extremely Detailed Engine
● Moveable and Steerable Front Wheels
● Accurate and highly detailed Interior and Chassis
● Opening Doors, Trunk, and Hood
