I have the maroon, blue and red with Continental Kit. I just added this one a couple of weeks ago thanks to information that was posted on this site. Price was a bargain and the shipping was immediate.

Gorgeous. So much better w/o the fugly (imo) cont. kit. I have the Reef Blue version.
The blue '53 Skylark was my very first Danbury Mint model from 1993. The paint has since cracked in many spots but it still displays well.
