Either it's the greatest coincidence ever, or I know some of those auction Packards intimately. I don't know why they are for sale but I can find out by picking up the telephone. The 35 Super 8 is very solid with original wood that is in great shape. The body was never off the frame so the original fit has not be destroyed. I used to tell people that car was "Packards finest hour" when they looked at it. At one point I did an inventory of the parts and it looks like most were thrown together and primed for the pictures. If you look closely the glove box doors are missing. They were taken off for another car and I'll bet the knuckleheads around there put them in the trash or god knows where. It's a really dumb story about why they aren't on the car.
