Porscheman Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) I've been looking this model for a very long time. I found this one on ebay at a very reasonable price. This one was finished in Testors Bright Aqua Pearl, very close to a color offered by Lincoln in 68. 2 coats of Wet Look clear topped it off. The interior is matching and the windows were lightly tinted with Tamiya's Clear Blue. The BMF on this one was tedious on the top of the fenders. I'm happy with the end results. As an owner of a 69 Continental, this is an excellent kit if you can find. Let me know what you think. Thank you, Al Edited October 25, 2013 by Porscheman
bbowser Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Great model! I seem to recall seeing more of these on the street back in the day than Caddys?
Ron Hamilton Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Nice. You know I love those suicide door Lincolns. I had to sell off my '68 last year, but I still have most of my other ones. I plan to build a replica of my Dad's '66, which was White, with a Burgundy interior.
Maindrian Pace Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Beautiful! I sure do like seeing these classic old kits being built with modern techniques and attention to detail. -MJS
peekay Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 I love these Lincolns and you did a beautiful job! From doing a 65 I know the fender-top foil is very difficult but you did it perfectly. Brilliant.
Porscheman Posted October 25, 2013 Author Posted October 25, 2013 Thanks everyone. I like building these kits from my early years. I just wish I could find a 69 Conti.
PappyD340 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 FANTASTIC build Al, the color looks great on it, nice job!!
slusher Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Gorgeous model. Great color. Great work on that classic kit...
berr13 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Looks like you could get in it and drive (sedately) away. Great work!
MyBradKeselowski Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Beautiful land yacht Lincoln ! ! ! I like the color..
Porscheman Posted October 26, 2013 Author Posted October 26, 2013 Great build, makes a good mob staff car. Thank you. Speaking mob cars, my 69 Continental had room for 10 bodies and still had room for the spare
slusher Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 AL l am glad you did not go black on this build. l have seen many of them in black. You have very good taste in colors on your builds...
Sixties Sam Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Great looking Lincoln! Great paint and foil work. Sam
charlie8575 Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Nice build, Al, and I like the color choice on it. Charlie Larkin
