Sold! I'll give you $1500 for it ;)

I'm not too up on the values of Packards before my era (1950) but I DO know they're hard to nail a fair price down on because there aren't a ton to compare to where you can find 5 or so in the same condition (unlike Chevy's, Fords, etc). And supply and demand are both just low.

Does the motor roll over? What's it look like under the hood? Body tag and serial numbers? More interior shots? What's the undercarriage look like? That's what buyers want to know.

Depending on which model it is, NADA is saying 9,000 - 30,000 for even the low end sedan. Problem is, most Packard fans already have one, not near as in demand as tri-5 Chevys etc. So even if you have a $250,000 car, if no one wants it, it's not worth $1,000. I hope someone that knows these better will chime in, looks like a nice original example and hope it finds a great home and you get a fair price for it.
