Just arrived for my collection. A beautiful replica, check the front pic, almost appears real. Even the parking light lenses are vertically fluted and the "Continental" script on the grille is perfect. My camera does not do justice to the gorgeous paint color - it is a bit more turquoise than blue. I tried outdoor pics but the camera still would not cooperate. This is No. 13 of 99 in this color with top down.

@ed-davis  Thanks I love the big 58 through

60 marks . I am a stickler for OEM colors. I don’t see this color blue on the 59 color chart. I see an electric blue for 60 and a similar blue for the 58. Attaching colors

That Lincoln replica looks superb ! It most certainly is a gem and beautifully done and in a great color here, too. Also, it is very difficult to negatively judge colors using on-line photographs and unknown color chips on anyone's computer monitor or phone. Colors can look different under different viewing conditions, with various displays used and etc.

I had hoped to avoid buying another model right now but with your pics I might go for the top up version in this color.  Looks great!

@whodeytink Mark, I have the turquoise top up and it's wonderful. I prefer top up models of convertibles especially with these Lincolns because it shows the breezeway window.

Thanks, Bob.  It looks outstanding.  I usually buy up top models.

I agree with your assessment on the color, I'd already checked the color charts and changed my database to indicate that color instead of the Pearl Blue.
