I am 59, in 1985 I saw a 37 115C business coupe at a gas station in Wilmington Delaware, already a fan off late 30s cars I just 'lost it' over this car. The lines were just perfect. I was able to buy this car from its owner (a member of the DuPont family) for $1200.00, drove her for 20 yrs when I had to sell to raise money for a business purchase, needless to say I was miserable, several years later I found another 115C business coupe for sale. She is mine and shes a keeper. My wife tells me she wishes I looked at her like I do my Packard. Richard
