At the Packard National Meet in Arlington, got a chance to visit my dad at Arlington National Cemetery. I have a pass that lets you drive right in. My dad was a big Packard fan and this car was the one he lusted over when he was 16, but could not afford. After WWII, he came back Major, he bought a new Packard every 3 years until they went out of business This pic is overlooking the cemetery
