I had a long helpful talk with 'Stewart , at Kanter's Packard DEpartment in Boonville New Jersey. He was super Helpful and I said i would thank him publicly here.

I have usually bought all my stuff that i had to get new there. mostly at first cause i did not know where else to go. but now cause they are usually very helpful

i brought this 51 200 home yesterday from a craigslist ad.

I will put it in the registry as soon as i go back out there to where i parked her. It was pouring rain then. did not get all the numbers off of it.

no title / bill of sale. body good. interior is non existent. has a chevy motor and trans in it. sad

that will come out. it was some half baked 'rod' attempt but it did not get too far. thank goodness. all trim and hood ornament and glass is good. bumpers rusty but they all are.

I am assuming without looking it up the a '6' motor is 9 bearings and a '4' is a 327 five bearing .. like the motor i am looking for would be a K4289... for my 200 deluxe 52 which came with the bigger engine. it has a J2xxxx ( 51 288 ) in it now.. but i have seen the year letter with a '3" and 4 and 6 my car did not come with a nine bearing motor , those started in 53 if i am
correct . which i may not be

that knoxville 53 is sweet . with all the records

the hulk for 2500 american dollars> ??? .
I agree delusions of grandeur or post mortem.. but like fine art (which is my business) .. it only takes one person to buy at your price. i have been so surprised what goes for big money and what wont go for cheap money..
In the fine art work only God knows... it is mostly the hype and salesmanship.
I have seen the same thing in the old car world too.

sometimes to make a sale you rise the price to ridiculous heights, makes it seem like its worth that. Then you bargain and they are so happy.

happy Holidays you guys!

You know what gets my Goat. Remember that car show / reality show a couple years ago when they would buy cars to 'flip'' and there was this nice 52 200 four door light green and the guy ''flipped it'' for six grand after he put five in it> actually i know the real story those shows are scripted and the true cost of that segment and car was more like over 20k. those ''mechanics ' worked for free on the show. but not in real life..

i hate it that people still 'flip' cars especially Packards I hope somebody does not try to buy this 51 black 200 in SAC City to flip. I would want somebody to buy and drive and enjoy.

But i guess i am a soft old heart divulge of reality in this cruel world
