What a great car to start with, Randy! You are going to have a lot of good times and memories with that 120. Does it have a name? My Clipper is called the Bumblebee (for obvious reasons ...). As far as advice is concerned, keep coming to this site and be sure to join at least a couple of Packard clubs, especially some in your immediate area. You will not only get some great advice, but you will have all sorts of opportunities to meet some outstanding and fun folks and tour cool places as well. The only other piece of advice I would offer is get out and drive your car. Cars, especially older ones like Packards, really need to be driven and on a fairly regular basis. Unless you bought it as a "trailer queen" which you cart from show to show, which I don't think is the case for you, then you and your family and friends should get out and take it cruising! Congratulations!
