Ian: Congradulations on the purchase of the Packard. As I live in Pennsylvania, were in Pennsylvania did you purchase your Packard.
You stated that your Packard is 1507 Club Sedan. The car has a wheel base of 139 inch wheel base. The body style number of your Packard is 1036. Your Packard cost $3,560 brand new, with a shipping weight of 5,520 lbs.
Ihave been a Packard fan for along time and a 1953 Packard owner, however I have a great love of pre-war Packards. When you get your car running you will certainly experience a feeling, few people have the pleasure of doing. Riding in a V12 powered Packard is something that I have done twice in the past.
Here is a picture that I took last weekend, that will show you the beaty of a restored Packard V12 engine.
