Re: 1941 Packard One-Twenty

Picked up the One-Twenty this morning from the media blaster, and I am really pleased with how much car is left. The frame is in perfect condition--no metal with thinning or holes in it. As I expected, I'll need to replace the front floor pans as well as the trunk pan, but as a whole, the car is in great shape. Other body work will include the exterior "kick" panels (between the firewall and front door jam) as well as the rear wheel wells and the passenger side front door.

I'm out of town from now until the first week of December, but the next plan is to remove the body and focus my attention on the frame. I am currently taking the transmission to a rebuilder and have a potential rebuilder looking at the engine. As a whole, all is well in the world. Pictures are attached for your viewing pleasure.
