Good evening Illinois, Jim, Shaun, Neil, John, and Ken!

Was a warm and humid day today here in Central Illinois today. Probably the reason why I accomplished nothing today. When one is retired there is always a good reason not to do something. LOL

That was Sunday John but was busy and got there too late, There was only one left and that was a 1956 Continental MKII. Probably should have taken a pic because its my favorite car. We did get a pic of one when we went to The Henry Ford Museum two years ago.

The one that I saw yesterday was pearl white. The one you posted has the correct wheel covers whereas the one I saw yesterday didn't.
