While the '34 seems to be overpriced, it is probably a near-100-point car. The '36 seems to be a very nice car, but is a tour car, and the restoration is not completely authentic or highly detailed (not engine compartment). Body style for body style,'34s will always be more desirable than '36s. It's tough to define exactly why, but I'm sure your idea being the "classic" body style versus the newer style has a lot to do with it.

Running 1940 120 coupe "unrestored". Not a bad buy for a driver.

I can't find a single packard part on this (they couldn't even get the hood ornament right) but it's being sold as a 34 packard.

I cannot fathom how the seller can pass this thing off as a "1934 Packard." The only thing you can say about it is that it sort of looks like a Packard of that era. Otherwise it belongs in the same listing as a Zimmer, Excalibur, or Clenet. What really amazes me, though, is after pumping all of that money into creating this car, why couldn't the builder splurge a little and put in a more substantial engine than a Pontiac V-6? I'm sure there is a spare Chevrolet 350 cid V-8 sitting around somewhere needing a new "home."

You can make a lot of really neat things from the parts left over after you rebuild your engine ...

I don't have any idea what that radiator is from, but I do know that there is some poor owner of an older Cadillac trying to figure out who absconded with his radiator mascot. Whoever stole it welded wings onto the figure's back, thus creating a "cormorant." Absolutely brilliant.

Geez, and there are only about 50 actual Packard cormorant mascots available on eBay on any given day ...

If I were to create something like this -- which believe me I would not -- I would start by locating the shell of an actual 1934 Packard (roadster preferred), then restore the body, chrome, etc. and mount it atop something like a 1970s Lincoln or thereabouts. I would do what I did with my Clipper and use wide whitewall radial tires and genuine Packard hubcaps, instead of those bogus spoke hubcaps this "34" dons.

For about the same amount of money the builder of this car spent, I would have a rod that at least acknowledged the beauty and grace of the 1934 Packard.

At least it wouldn't be the abomination that this thing is.
