SM, We were recently treated to a drive in a '51 Patrician. The car was well represented with its beautiful maroon exterior and brown broad cloth and wool carpeted interior. It rode and drove beautifully. If I were to buy another Packard it would be a '51 - '53 Patrician/400. Top of the line for Packard at the time. And, that wonderful turbine smooth 9-main bearing straight-8 engine is a marvel. You can't miss with one of these cars.
