1960 Lincoln Continental Mk V Convertible by Brooklin Models

  Brooklin Models BRK 57 - 1960 Lincoln Continental Mk V Convertible

The 1960 Lincoln Continental Mark V was a luxury car that embodied the bold and extravagant design philosophy of the late 1950s and early 1960s. As the final model year of the third-generation Continental (1958-1960), the Mark V was the last of the "big-body" Lincolns before a major downsizing in 1961.

The 1960 Continental Mark V was notable for its massive dimensions—one of the largest unibody cars ever produced. It featured a sleek, squared-off design with a bold, upright grille and prominent tailfins, which were toned down slightly from previous years.

The standard Brooklin Model 1960 Lincoln Continental Mark V Convertible (BRK57) was released in March 1996 and deleted in 2009. It is finished in polaris white with cream/red interior, yellow license plate and whitewall tyres. For the last batch the body of the anniversary version was used with a different shade of white. This model has separate chrome door handles and narrow whitewall tyres. The chrome behind the rear seats is a little smaller and the two white parts on each side are separated and not cast with the body. Extravagant chrome trim, giving it a distinct luxury appearance.

 Brooklin Models BRK 189 - 1960 Cadillac Series 62 Six Window Sedan

The model replicates the striking and distinctive design of the 1960 Cadillac Series 62, with its vast, sweeping lines, large tail fins, and massive chrome bumpers. From the moment you glance at it, the model exudes the same presence as the full-size car, with its polished chrome accents and smooth, flowing contours.

The tailfins are one of the most prominent features of the real 1960 Cadillac, and Brooklin has carefully recreated these with precision. The rear end of the model features the signature vertical stabilizer fins, highlighted by the detailed tail lights and twin bullet-style rear lamps, which are carefully painted and finished to match the look of the original. The chrome trim that runs along the sides of the vehicle is finely executed, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship that Brooklin is known for.

The front of the car captures the wide, imposing grille, flanked by quad headlights, which gives the model its characteristic Cadillac face. The headlights are individually detailed, and the grille is finely replicated, with the classic Cadillac emblem proudly displayed in the center. The large chrome bumpers are also sculpted to perfection, giving the car a sense of weight and luxury.

One of the standout features of the Brooklin Models BRK 189 Cadillac is the level of interior detail. While the interior is not as visible on a 1:43 scale model as it would be in real life, Brooklin still manages to convey the luxurious atmosphere of the 1960 Cadillac's cabin. The dashboard, seats, and even the steering wheel are intricately molded, painted, and finished to reflect the quality materials and opulent design found in the full-size vehicle.

The finish of the model is immaculate, with the paintwork being smooth and glossy,  in classic Cadillac colors like pastel blues, whites, and metallics, capturing the luxury car’s elegant appearance. The overall fit and finish of the model are superb, with parts fitting tightly together, and the model has a polished look that stands out in any collection.

Whether you're a dedicated Cadillac enthusiast, a model car collector, or simply someone who appreciates automotive history, the BRK 189 is a model that will undoubtedly be a prized addition to any collection.

1957 Packard Clipper Town Sedan by Brooklin Models

 BRK 171 - 1957 Packard Clipper Town Sedan in Tiara Gold

The 1957 and 1958 Packard lineup of automobiles were based on Studebaker models: restyled, rebadged, and given more luxurious interiors. 

Only one Packard model was available for 1957, the Clipper, and it was a Packard in badging only. Beneath those Packard badges was Studebaker's top-of-the-line President dressed in tailfins, unique trim, a different headlight treatment, a supercharger and an upscale interior, among other things. The Clipper was offered in two body styles--a four-door sedan, dubbed the Town Sedan, and a station wagon, the Country Sedan. For longtime Packard customers, this was badge engineering at its worst: A former world-beating brand, renowned for quality and innovation, reduced to some chrome emblems.
