I don't have, but Roberto took a couple, which could end up in PI's magazine. I was a little surprised that not everyone owning a Packard knew him, but I learned that several entrants in the Concours were relatively new to Packarding.

Except for that one Thursday morning when most of the entrants drive to Big Sur, there were virtually no other antique cars on that 26 mile road except mine. Plenty of souped-up Mustangs, Porsche, Jaguar, Ferrari, and Lamborghini, however.

I was thrilled with the performance of the Duchess on the road. Winding highway going down, freeway hills going back, all in all drove about 1800 miles.
