It's happened. I've officially joined the ranks of Packard ownership. After many years of waiting because of more pressing concerns (school, career, family, house, etc), I've finally been able to purchase my first.
I picked up a 1954 Packard Clipper Super Panama (quite the mouthful), from here on out referred to as just "Panama". It's definitely a project car, which is what I was wanting. I'm new to all of this, so I figured the best way to learn about old cars, and Packards specifically, was to dive right in and get messy. I'll ask a lot of questions as I go forward, and will do my best to document every step.
We were able to agree on a price that I feel is reasonable for this car. He drove it over on his flatbed from several hours away. Kids were super-excited to see it arrive.
