Their seems to be an infinite number of shades of white. I love the buttery cream on this FM 1956 Continental Mkll.

Beautiful color, beautiful pics Rich. Continental called that color, for the '56 Mrk II, "White". It is very reminiscent of the '56 Ford and T-Bird "Colonial White".

Just checked another photo; it is a deeper 'cream', as you point out, than either of the FM '41 or '61 Lincolns:
