VEHICLE HISTORY/ PROJECT STATUS: | My father and I acquired this 1955 Packard Caribbean Convertible in 1973. It has been parked in the garage since then. My father was in the process in changing the transmission from Ultramatic to 3 speed. He passed away about 25 years ago and the Packard remains as he left it in the garage. We were told the Caribbean came from western Arizona and it has absolutely no rust. Some parts are missing, which I need to locate like some stainless steel trim, the air cleaner and a few mechanical items. You can call me at: David Grant 661-713-3885 or email me at davidgrant58@icloud.com. Thank you. | ||||
