$8000???!!! Delusions of grandeur, $80 might be more realistic.

"it was my dads dream car." Whoa! Maybe when it was seen new in a photograph, but this more of someone's nightmare, if you ask me. It doesn't look like there is enough there to even make a reasonable parts car, let alone restore-able. Chrysler engine? Chrome gold plated? What the hell was this guy thinking? $8000???

JD is absolutely correct -- it truly is sad. Imagine the day when the car's first owners took the keys to this 180. What a jewel it must have been. Imagine the neighbors looking out of their windows as this beautiful sedan (Sudan?) glided down the street. And now look at it. Pathetic.

I guess it would figure that anyone so ignorant as to replace one of Packard's finest engines with a Chrysler V-8 with cruise control can't spell worth a damn. And will anyone out there please tell me what an "interlinear" is? (I do have a pretty good idea)

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

The 1940 180,
Was the top welded, or did it have a padded top?

I can't tell if it has a rear vent window, or if that was part of a padded top.

Hi

What a hideous mess that '40 180 Formal Sedan is! As JC notes, sad on so many levels. One wonders what condition it was in when it fell into the hands of those vandals. A modern powertrain and gold plated brightwork tells us all we need to know about the owner's taste.....a dream car?

Still, hope someone is able to rescue what's left.

Steve
