Packard, MG and Morris is quite the combination. Don't remember seeing too many MG or Morris cars in New Mexico during the 50s but I hope they all didn't exit the car business at the same time leaving the dealer scratching his head.

Here's a bit more from my collection. How about an award from Packard Proving Ground in recent years, but piston is old... from a Packard and wood base is even older...salvaged from the Packard Plant factory admin offices.

You might enjoy reading the explanation on the underside of this very creative and well-done Packard Proving Grounds award.

And... how about this piece de resistance? This is a prototype cap that was intended for wire wheels on the 1957 Detroit-built Packards that were never produced. Cap came from a Packard upper management executive and was the last known Packard part to leave the plant in hands of management.

Those who attended the Packard Concept Car Seminar at last year's PAC Packard Club National Meet at South Bend got to hold and examine this cap as I passed it around for attendees to see.
