Wouldn't that be a deal ...

It seems odd to me that this guy would want a Cadillac 500 cid engine for a car such as this. It would add a lot of weight to the front end and as I recall from a friend's 1969 DeVille convertible, the only thing the 500 waa especially good at was consuming gasoline.

The 352 cid that came with this car was a big block too, but at least it had an excuse -- it was a best Packard could do in 1956 and it was a good engine overall.

Maybe his ex got angry after the seller cashed her paycheck to cover filling up his tank with premium.
