I agree with post #42! Those cars that you guys have been putting pictures of on the thread are (all except for the longhood red one) all terrible chop-ups of existing cars that look like something that Al Bundy would have driven to the shoe store. This whole concept is like finding the BEST Elvis impersonator out there and thinking that if we can only get him on tour that he will be as big a cash cow (no pun intended) as the real thing,....NEVER gona happen, and if it did it would cheapen the original. No I think the best thing to hope for is more NEW old Packard parts being on the market so that more people will save barn finds and restore them. I mean if you have ANY PART of the chassis from a '69 Camarrow, not only will it sell FAST, but whoever gets is can just cut a check for all new parts and "ta da" a brand new '69 hits the streets, not the scrap yard.
