New here, great site, need some info on a 40 180
Posted by pandamarie On 2007/9/21 11:18:17
My Granfather is giving me his 1940 180 5 passenger touring. and he said it was the show car for Packard at the San Francisco worlds fair in 39-40. it was built in late 39 and is registered as a 39 (sept 24th), it has some trim on the fenders both front and rear that is totally different than any other 180 I have ever seen. would like to know if anyone has any pictures of the car at the worlds fair or any info.
The car will never be sold, just looking for some history on it.
I also have a 41 120 business coupe and a 36 3 window business coupe that the previous owner put a 288 and R11od in, he lengethened the hood and moved the fender forward 8 inches, Looks like 110 fenders on a 120. oh well it was only 1200 bucks and it runs with new wide whites, just needs some tuning to run great like all Packards do. also have a edmunds 2x2 intake for the 288 which I plan on putting on the 36 when I get it all sorted out, nice to have an all Packard hot rod.
