Re: Fun with used cars

After an uncommonly long wait, my 56 400 is at last painted. Here is the goal: one of the last print ads from Packard in the Saturday Evening Post. Productions record show they never actually built an all red 400. But here is a major step in that direction.
I first drove this car as a teenager and was bowled over by its performance. A few years ago the long-time owner passed and I snapped it up based on the that 40+ year old memory. It is still one of the best driving V8 cars I have encountered. It was black and white from the factory, but these 56 cars look about three blocks long when in a solid color.
