So is this car a custom-8 with the wrong engine? Or is it something else?


It's a Deluxe Super which should have a 327. This car has a 288.

The windshield trim is not chromed. You are correct in that it would be on a Custom to match the side window garnish. I think the side window garnish on this car came from a Custom.

Is this the same car that was mentioned a few months ago as being "a former Packard mechanics dream car that was lovingly put together from parts and cars he had collected over his lifetime."


I think it is.
