Re: Adventures with a 1937 (115C) Convertible Coupe

Hello All,s

This past Sunday (March 4th) drove the 115C to the Austin Cars and Coffee in nearby Leander. Don't know why it is called by the Austin name and not the Leander name where it is held on the first Sunday of the month.

This was the first nice first Sunday we had this year. January's C&C was not held because of the holiday and February's event was a no show because of rain. This was the second display of the '37 at this event but about a year between showings. It drew a lot of attention and received many favorable comments. Sorry no photos, I left the camera at home.

This time it was not the only Packard at the event. A 5th Series 1928 Single Six Sedan made an appearance along with a 1931 Cadillac Roadster. Don't know if the Packard was a 303 or 305, but believe it was a 303. I have seen this Packard before at Salado.

I will not be back until at least the May event. On Sunday April I will be returning to Austin from the 35th Annual Texas Packard Meet in Salado.

Thanks for your time, and take care.
