The ads are replete with fiberglass projects that were started, weren't completed, and owner wants their money out but won't get it because the finished cars never bring the bucks the steel ones do. So it's about the same odds as gambling.
I'd only do it if I lived in snow or ocean country and wanted to drive year around in the salt.

There's a few for sale but they want real Packard prices. There was 1 at an auction in Texas a few months ago and high bid was $43k IIRC. It was a 33 roadster.
And most of the time they run on a SBC, how hard is it to put a post war Packard drive train in it? They're not that hard to obtain.
