Thanks Charlie, it was funny because while I was driving toward my house a guy flagged me down blinking his lights, so I pulled into a parking lot thinking we were leaking something. Nope, he just wanted to ask what kind of car it was. He liked the engine, thought the old car was pretty cool. I hadn't expected any fans, since the cosmetics are pretty bad, but as we all know you don't see a Packard driving around just every day.
We're having an outdoor movie night at work Friday night, we show the movies on one of the big hangar doors, have BBQ catered, and invite old cars and airplanes to display. So I can do both of those, the 1952 Packard and my 1956 Cessna. And I don't have far to go, just around the corner of the ramp. So, I thought I better get going on cleaning up the car for its glamour turn. Started buffing the trunk area and top tonight, you can see the difference after the first pass on the roof.
