Ever since I was a kid I wanted a late 20's / early 30's Packard. Being in the UK there are practically none so I could only look at photos in books and dream...

But now (age 43) I have come good and finally purchased a beautiful 7th series 1930 Dual Cowl Phaeton. Just clearing the garage and hoping to take delivery in about 10 days.

While it looks perfect there are hundreds of small jobs to do to bring it up to the condition I want so I will be asking you good folk for advice no doubt. I'll post regular picutres of the detailed work, but for now, this is me after parting with my money.....


Wow! When you jump in to the Packard fold, you jump in with both feet and take no prisoners... a 745 dual cowl phaeton!! Next stop, 1932 Twin Six????

Do you know the ownership history of your 745? That is very important, because so many of these are "body swaps".
