Re: 1940 110 Blue

I recall a 1940 seven passenger touring sedan in centennial that was owned by a shady character who stole it out of a heated New York City private garage where it had been sitting unused for 20 years. It had under 9000 miles on it and was mint.

I don't recall it having a stripe, and given the chrome strip under the beltline that would be redundant.

The wheels were striped, which is probably what is meant in the paint scheme definitions.

Of course lots of dealers used private stripers who could lay down stripes on a whole car lot in a few hours.

I don't know whatever happened to that car, but it was the best 1940 Packard I have ever seen.
