Re: PackardDon's 1956 Clipper Custom Sedan

Although I’ve not done any of the type of work that needs posting here, I haven’t been idle with this Clipper either. So far, I have an entire NOS grille for it (except for the parking lights which are excellent used) with NOS lenses, some NOS emblems and even some NOS or mechanical parts. I also got a reproduction power window harness, a suspension bushing kit, brake rebuild parts so now all I need is the time to work on it!
Arrived today is a replacement rear bumper. The original was undamaged and would have replated nicely but suffered surface rust after having been parked in my front yard for decades so this is its replacement. Other than a tiny dent on the outside right end, it looks like new!
Note to ignore the little Packard script at the lower right corner of the trunk lid. This car did not originally have it and won’t if and when it’s done.
