not sure WHAT that thing is. Looks like '54 bumpers, but the front windshield trim puzzles me. Photo isnt clear enough to be certain, but that MAY be a '51-52 upper shell.

One possibility is someone put the bumpers and front clip from a later Packard ('54 ? ) on a '51-52'.

I rebuilt a couple of wrecked '51 - '52 Packards by using front clips from other cars - if anyone has what they THINK is a 200 convertible...could be one of my old ones...! (no such thing as a 200 convertible, far as I know 'cept for the ones I repaired with 250-300-400 front clips....!)
