John, great shots as always. Is this a repaint? I do not recall a burgundy version of the 61 Continental.

Great Shots John

I liked this body style as the follow-on to the 58-60, which I loved and talk about "land yachts",

This 61 looks especially good in the burgundy.

Just a guess ... Outside lighting "may" have this car look dark than the original Poly Red

You are right. These shots are darker than the model really is.

I wasn't thrilled with this group of photos, so I never finished them up or posted them before.

The Cadillac in the background is nice. The Lincoln? I've nothing to say that is nice.

I bet that car has a FLA lic plate on the rear ... That house looks very familiar
