I think the Cadillac and Lincoln clubs have a lot more interest in authentic restorations.

I remember years ago when the body swapping issue came up in the car clubs, mostly because of a certain case of making fake dual cowl phaetons. Many of those cars are now devalued.

I remember seeing a 34 Packard owned by someone we all know where the owner tried to return the radiator shell to chrome plating. It looked like garbage.

If this practice of grinding up radiator shells on Packards goes the way of body swapping then there will be some problems for anybody who wants to return their car to original.

It's just another case of fake Packard history being made up.
