"The '56 400 that was Stuart Blond's for years:
http://newjersey.craigslist.org/cto/4649569448.html " ----> This one.

After all the work James did getting the car back in respectable condition, sorry to see he is moving it out but hope it goes to a good home. On one of his last blog posts he mentioned baby was on the way so it is understandable priorities change & a car might have to give way.

Yes my wife and I had a beautiful baby girl in the beginning of June. The car has been so much fun and a great experience. Unfortunately I need to downsize on the amount of cars I have. So I have regretfully put it up for sale locally. But it is not the only car I have for sale. I have another car up for sale to. So which ever car sells first goes. But in the mean time i still plan on working on some more projects on the 400. Next on the list is the rear end bushings. Now I know my asking price is high, but if someone is willing to pay it then it will go.

Thanks
James

A running 1940 160 for $5k and with a parts car with extra engine for another $1k

1935 Packard. Sounds like a parts car

That 1940 looks like a good start. These bodies in my opinion are kind of pedestrian and usual for the time, but the front clip with that extra Packard length, impressive grille and dual sidemounts really make this a special car, in my opinion.

$5000 is right on the high edge of what I would pay for a restoration start, but overall if I had $5000 I would go for it.

Here's a possible opportunity for someone:

They have not indicated if anyone has bid on these cars, but if I was retired I would at least go for the Model T or the Model A. There is a Packard in there.

I don't know where these cars came from but I can see some big collections going into this block if the government needs money and starts to enforce the tax code.

Hi Tim

Thanks for digging this one out, not the usual type of car found at government surplus auctions, specifically:

Odd choice of color, that turquoise looks more like what they painted 23rd Series cars. The door jams show a light gray which looks more authentic.....and more appropriate! Interior appears extremely nice. The description notes it was sold new in Salinas, CA, likely a solid, rust-free example.

No pictures, high priced and most likely a junior 38 convertible sedan:
