The seller posted the car for sale on the AACA Packard Buy/Sell sub-forum which is where I found the car. JD in KC directed me here.

Through that forum I initiated an offer by PM to the seller. My offer was an amount that would cover his costs to remove the car plus some profit.

I will likely be rejected but being in central Iowa, my costs would be over $1000 to transport. As we know the car is an artifact, and therefore it would be essential to get that very early production V8 and transmission to retain it's interesting story and character.

That effort to place the engine back in the bay for transport would fall on a dealer-seller who probably doesn't care, after getting paid.

So we will see.
