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.

Holllld onto your potatoes!
Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe... Found another one of the missing Pan Americans... and have one beyond that in my sight! Been searching for this one for several years. And there's a lot more to the story. Wait until you see the issue of The Packard Cormorant with the whole story. Coming later this year!

Thought you might enjoy seeing these. And yes, they are real... and yes, they are original! Now... whatever happened to the little triangle medallion and Henney logos that MichaelP once posted on here? Attach file:  (464.59 KB)

These are gold, and the ones on the car look chrome.
Is that correct?

Which car? There were 6 Pan Americans... and keep in mind that several of these cars were modified. Pan Am #1 was hugely modified. Anyway... the original door logos were in gold, as you see here.
