G'day Bryan,
As you're a stalwart on the AACA Website, I have followed many of your threads. Not the least being this recent one, and gladly you to PackardInfo.

And now you're here, I invite you to include your 22nd series Custom 8 Sedan, as well as any of the farm Packards if you should purchase them, in the Packard Owner's Registry here on PackardInfo!

Thanks.

My 22nd series Custom 8 is stored on an acreage and I don't have the numbers. It is a rough project vehicle slated to go to a very professional restorer. I will grab the numbers when I get it relocated to my garage. I need to get a title.

I had some issues with one of the clubs. I had 9 cars. Sold all but 3. I bought a 72 Mercedes 450 SL convertible my daughter and I are restoring for her 1st car, and that left a very solid 49 Chrysler New Yorker club coupe and my Packard. I decided to put both on ebay and which ever one sold, I would buy another one of the make that did not sell and focus on that make.

Since the Chrysler is so much better, I figured I would soon be a Packard collector.

I sold all my titled cars, some nice originals that ran and drove and some titled projects. The 2 cars not running and without titles are not selling.

The problem is I don't want to give my cars away. We'll see. It would make more sense to keep both of these cars but I like the concept of collecting more then 1 of a make and joining a club supporting that make. I'm not much of a club joiner, I've never toured with anyone because I never consistently had nice cars.
