My six 1954 Lincoln Capri models have arrived, and they are incredibly awesome. The colors chosen are exquisite and for me, perfect representations of this striking automobile. 

I hope to get some quick photos in the next few days or so, we'll see. Luckily Tom posted some great shots in this forum of each color offered for all of us to enjoy.

These will be great to have and I am sure any of the colors of these beautiful 1954 Lincoln Capris will be a winner. As soon as you image any or all of these they will be a treat to see in model form !

John, you're right. Once again, Tom D has done an amazing job of putting the colors together. What did you decide to do with the graphics on the white car with race livery?

@jkuvakas

I got the plain white w/o any graphics. At this time I’m not interested in the race car versions.

For me it was all about color.  I almost went with the beige/dark brown version but realized that I had very few white models in my collection; plus this particular GLM had the beautiful dark metallic blue roof and interior enhancement, which really set it off well.  The quality of this model is outstanding IMHO; Tom and Dale deserve a round of applause!
