About the Lincoln Continental Mark III The Barris Car Movie Auto World 1:18
TL;DR: Auto World's 1:18 diecast Lincoln Continental Mark III reproduces the officially licensed Barris custom movie car. Diecast construction gives this 1971 coupe genuine weight and tight panel gaps, honoring a vehicle customized by one of Hollywood's most famous car builders.
George Barris built a career transforming ordinary cars into unforgettable screen vehicles, and this Lincoln Continental Mark III carries his customizing touch into an officially licensed diecast replica.
Diecast Detail on a Barris-Customized Coupe
The Mark III's long hood and formal, upright grille already made a striking base for customization, and Auto World's diecast rendering holds tight, consistent panel gaps around the coupe's large, flat body surfaces, a shape that exposes uneven tooling more readily than a compact car would. Custom detailing tied to Barris's signature style, whether in trim, paint treatment, or added ornamentation, is rendered with clean, well-defined edges rather than a soft or generalized approximation. Interior detail follows a period-correct luxury treatment, appropriate to the Continental's flagship positioning within Lincoln's lineup at the time.
A Piece of Hollywood Customizing History
George Barris remains one of the most recognized names in custom car culture, having built and modified vehicles for film and television for decades, and any officially licensed Barris car carries that pedigree directly. For a movie-car or custom-car collection, this Continental Mark III offers documented Hollywood customizing history in a substantial, full-size American coupe body. It appeals to collectors interested in the craft of car customization as much as the specific film connection.
