President of Chile's Packard on American Pickers

Since I don't visit the forum much, this topic may have already been covered.

I just saw the episode of American Pickers in which the guys the were in NY state and picked the car collection of the family of a now-deceased gentleman who collected Packards, among other cars.

One of the Packards belonged to the President of Chile. The seller wanted $55,000. The owner had turned down an offer $35,000 from a previous potential buyer. An expert named Mefford was with Mike and said the car would probably bring $40,000/45,000 at auction.

Just wondering if any forum members might know what become of that Packard, which I assume would be highly desired.

Also, the collector had a "Madame X" Cadillac, which I had never heard of.

kind regards
