I really do think the story of FDR giving a 180 as a gift to Uncle Joe Stalin could possibly have a lot of truth to it.

However this is fact. In 1942 some of the last Packard's sold were two Super Eight 180's purchased by the Russian government. they were delivered to their embassy in Washington DC. Perhaps these two 180's were shipped to Russia
and one of the 180's copied.
