Signsup, answered your query in your post #7 in my previous post #6.

Again, yes, it's your car, it's a free country, yadda yadda. But you're on a site for the preservation and rejuvenation of Packards, not retro rods nor fanciful cartoon cars, "homages" to things that never were.

What's the point? Why ruin a car to make it into some bogus monstrosity, mislead the public? Skip fantasy land. Isn't there enough overlooked War II reality?

And forget the "Gen. MacArthur Clipper." That was thoroughly debunked in the respected Special Interest Autos back in the late '70s. Yet half a century later, we're still seeing cobbled replicas of what never existed,


just as you're planning.

Either smother a rare 127-inch wheelbased 1942 One-Sixty/One-Eighty Clipper with olive drab paint and a big hokey white star on its flanks, or better yet, volunteer at your local VA hospital, support VA benefits, body and Humvee armor for those in combat today, and/or make a contribution to the Eisenhour Library or Columbia University.

Stick with Marvel comic books.
