Hi V8PM,

John makes a good point on the engine not being seized; also -not sure what your plans are with the car, but if originality is important to you, the engine serial number should start with a 'C'.(it is on the top, front, driver's side of the block) Not that this would confirm it was the original engine that it left the factory with, but it WOULD make it a 1940 and that would a worthwhile bonus. That being said, there is a pretty good infrastructure out there for parts and pieces for these cars; pretty much everything can be 'found or fixed'. If you do buy it - 'welcome to Packard'!! Chris
