Looking closely at the pictures, it appears the rockers, dogleg and above the fender skirts that usually have evidence of rust or body work look to be very good, show no indication of such. An in-person inspection would be best.
Interestingly, the cowl and door jams show it was originally Matadore maroon metallic, similar to the red on it now. Few of the multiple 200's that appear for sale now are in this color. If it has overdrive, it could be a great driver. Steve Added 7-22-2018: Ross, thanks for confirming it has overdrive, makes this 200 Deluxe even more desirable. Replace the Egyptian hood ornaments on the rear fenders with the chrome fins that became optional for all 200 and 250 models late in the '52 model year same the '53 Clippers had. Two 22nd-23rd Series owners would be delighted to get those Egyptian ornaments for their cars.

Proud 1953 Clipper Deluxe owner. Thinking about my next Packard, want a Clipper Deluxe Eight, manual shift with overdrive. |

I see an overdrive relay. That's a fine cruising machine.

The engine should be Grey not Green shouldn't it? The oil bath air cleaner was an extra cost item as well... or added later. Maybe not the original motor?

I believe that mechanism near the radiator is to pull up a winterfront on a cold Iowa February morning.

Interesting on the winter front. Those of us in the more temperate regions never see things like that. Wonder what the inside looks like when it is pulled up -- a handle and rod like the emergency brake or just a knob hanging off the chain or cable or something else??
