NOthing wrong with giving Pakard owners alternatives. Here's one: Rip out your problematic, valve burning, between the cylinder cracking, oil leaking and consuming straight 8. While you're at it, remove and chuck the inefficient Ul-Traumatic. Replace with a crate Chevy 350 and a rebuilt Turbo 400 or better soup to nuts for about $2500.

Fantastic perforamnce, 200,000 mile reliability, no greedy Packard parts vendors to contend with. Run it on only 100% American gasoline and fill the carnkcase with onjly 100% American oil.

While you'reat it, 4 wheel discs, ABS, shock absorbing bumpers, air bags and of ocurse a dual master cylinder for safety, side door beams. Voila, you're driving a mid 90's Chevrolet CAprice or Caddy Fleetwood Brougham with 100% American parts......Priceless!!!
