I've been looking for a 65 continental 4 door hardtop, but I'm against spending an arm and a leg for it. I've settled for a convertible until I either convince myself to spend the money or find a good deal somewhere. Kit: AMT 65 Lincoln Continental convertible 3 in 1 Paint: dupli-color universal gloss black Style: factory stock except for rims and tires Here's the start of it   Sprayed dupli-color primer   And then came the dupli-color universal black   More coming soon... |

Thanks by the way!! OH, wow man thanks, I just wish I hadn't broke her, but she is coming along nicely, just getting the cowl down, how are you going to handle the interior, I so suck at it myself, so I will be watching to see how you deal with this, no secrets now,  BTW' this is looking really sharp, and I'm still gonna work on Shock'r, that's becouse of your Rivie, thanks..... |

It's great to be able to inspire each other. Not all builds manage to do that. The interior is still sitting in the box. I'm thinking maybe a light gray or a light brown. Maybe some flocking. With convertibles, the interior has to be just a tad bit better than hard tops because you see a lot more of it. I will make sure I share every step I take.

Nice work so far!
Nothing like a black Lincoln.
Hmmmm, I wonder what this car would look like if it were shortened to a 2 door..........
