Outstanding build.  I remember being 9 yrs old and building one of these as a stock car, painted bright yellow with roll bar, numbers, and sponsor decals.  Back then, one of the local race tracks in our area featured convertible stock car racing.  My dad and I went to the race track nearly every Saturday night in the summer to watch those races.

A beautiful build. Yours has the best looking taillights on this bodystyle. To me the round ones these had look like J.C.Whitney afterthought. The rectangular are classy. JMHO though. You rocked it.👍💯

Your rendition of the colossal Continental is spot on. Can you imagine driving around in one of these back in the day, smoking a cigar without a care in the world 👍

@GenoThank you for the compliment! Those rectangular taillights on the '59 Continental Mark IV are better looking for sure and more integrated. Many years ago I saw a real '58 Continental Mark III at a show and had to get the very similar 1:18 scale die cast replica of that car by Sun Star models. I also have the AMT '60 Continental Mark V that I'll be uploading to the site shortly.
