A piece of history?
Posted by PP56FR On 2017/1/11 17:04:34
Hi all,
New to the forum and to the Packard world, I recently purchased a 1956 Patrician that I saw for sale thanks to a great topic here that tries to collect the ads of Packards for sale on Craigslist. Kind of Xmas gift for a car I think I always wanted after reading a book 20 years ago (well, 23 to be accurate, that was back in 1994!). The car is Mojave Tan (one repaint in a bit too light tone) with a matching mint interior (the car has 15,300 miles). That dash is just a piece of jewelry.
I'm currently doing to paperwork to have it registered/titled, and just discovered that this Patrician is number 3765 out of 3775 produced. Could it be that this car was produced during the last day(s) of Packard operations in Detroit?
Apologies for my newbie questions.
