Last I heard AL had a very good one. I expect he wants it kept on the QT, or he would've posted it by now. Or maybe he's just forgetful, unlike me.
I don't think you could get a '56 with standard spring suspension? I still think a TL could be raced if it was set up right (just don't ask me how to set it up). One essential though IMO, the leveler would have to be on manual override.
Sure wish Jack Harlin were around to talk to you about V8 Packard racing. He was one of the very few.

the only thing i would have done different would be to have built it with a 3/over insted of the twin. unless i was super serious about racing it. then it would have been a 5647 with standard spring suspension also. Hummm interesting name 55packardguy. i have a 55 i'm calling a
"caribben clipper" so he can't have that one or i'd suggest it!
