Re: 1956 400 on Detroit Craigslist...

Mr. Pushbutton is certainly ok. He played the theater organ for a Motor City Packards meet a week ago. I used to be part owner of this car on Craigslist. We sold it to Mr. Pushbutton, I guess 30 years ago. If I had the storage space and less age on my body I would buy it back in a heartbeat. The car was owned by a finance comptroller at Packard who basically was responsible for selling off the Detroit assets of Packard in 1956. Another MCP member and I bought it from his estate and got the car out of harms way all those years ago. This car has factory air, one color Norwegian Forest paint and it would be great to see it restored. Mr. Pushbutton hates to have to sell this car but it has to go. You can't buy a car from a more trustworthy guy. Another thought, wouldn't it be neat to have this car restored and parked next to the 56 Patrician that was done a number of years ago in Norwegian forest color also.
