The Battleship. Lincoln's entry for the (fictional) early-1960's American Road Racing Championship. This series was an epic mix of big American brand hubris (and funding), local small-business pride, an open rulebook, and Space Program engineers moonlighting on racecar projects for fun, bringing their aerospace materials and tech.
The Continental ARRC was based on a non-production short-wheelbase two door coupe design concept, and mostly held to the spirit of the ruleset in keeping front facia, rear facia, fender and rooflines intact. Recalled by the lead engineer as "the nightmare love child of a Continental and an F1 car" this MkII version has a front-mounted Ford/Cosworth DFV F1 engine, rear mounted sports-car-derived transaxle, pushrod suspensions, monocoque tub chassis, and rear-mounted cooling to clear the way for the fully cut-away nose area and aggressive underfloor aero.
Model builds up as a modular chassis with separate tub, engine, sidepod, and rear transmission/suspension structures all featuring loads of chassis detail. Removable bodywork panels reveal racing interior. Built up from intricate sub-assemblies, recommended for more advanced builders.
