Re: King Carol of Romania's 1937 Packard convertible

Is it my imagination or does it look lower than a regular Packard? How many parts would you think were re-used as Packard stock parts? Hood and grille? Perhaps non sidemount fenders?
Can't say with regard to this particular car, but taking direction from the restoration of the Pebble Beach 38 Graber, that car was delivered to Graber as a chassis (no body tub). The cowl was lowered, the grille shell was lowered and shutters probably shortened, etc.
