Thanks, Roger. Sorry I missed Bill Robinson's seminar that I understand you were assisting. How'd it go?

Hello Leeedy:
IMHO, Bill did really well. It was PAC who invited him and got his photos converted into a power point presentation. I was not there for the first part, but when I was able to break free I saw that the room was nearly filled. It appeared that he was telling his stories of his time at Briggs, Chrysler, the College for Creative Studies and what he did for Packard. Toward the second half I was able to bring in 4 of his original works he did at Briggs on behalf of Packard. He had a very long Q&A session and a number of folks stayed to ask him more questions. Poor guy had a long day. He drove down from Detroit early in the morning and he did not leave the presentation room until nearly 10:00 PM. One fellow told me that Bill's presentation alone was worth attending the National Meet.

You are most welcome. If anyone out there knows whereabouts of any Packard Pan American car... or even stories about where one might be, I'm very interested in knowing. Including the Pan American that is supposedly disassembled somewhere in garage. It would be extra nice to resolve the stories-once and for all- about the car that went to Europe. Thanks in advance for any leads.

Leads continue trickling in (thanks much), but none have led to a real Pan American so far. Most turn out to be Caribbeans or customized Caribbeans or just mistaken identities. But an interesting photo came in yesterday and the hunt continues.
