Re: Grandpa was a Packard Owner

Thanks all for the kind greetings. I will sign up for the SDC Forum and learn more about the dealership. I showed that picture of Mr. Filer Sr. in front of his dealership next to the Packard he was about to deliver and my father in law said, "Yep, that looks like Carl!"

And I would definitely be happy to sign the Packard Owner's Registry if I were to take one home. I don't have any plans to do so now but maybe I'll have an opportunity someday.

With my grandpa putting me on a path of liking large cars (and my dad doing nothing but encouraging me to do so), I've had a few Mopar luxo-liners. The latest find is kind of shout-out to him and the 77 NYB he essentially gave me.

But I can't say I haven't looked for a 55 Clipper! In fact, I found one very similar to his in CA.http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/4820308349.html

Thanks again for the warm welcome. I look forward to learning more about this impressive marque.
