PackardDon: I took another look at the free 1954 Packard, and I think you are correct. I thought at first it was a Clipper, but the roofline is that of a senior car, either a Cavalier or a Patrician. So much of the trim is either missing, or does not appear in the photos, but judging by the positioning of the holes in the rear door, it is probably a Patrician. The Patrician engine will definitely not work for the 1951 200 project. So humanpotatohybrid should try to score the 1953 Clipper (the light blue car) that is part of the three car deal if he wants an original engine that will work in the `51. The white car in this set is a 1953 Patrician, so that won't work in this case.

And the `51 is a 200 Deluxe, which makes it more desirable.
