Packard 22nd Series 6 cylinder Touring Sedan 1948

I am seeking advice - comments - anything really which is relevant to possible purchase of a 1948 Packard 22nd Series 6 cylinder Touring Sedan (some references to these cars say the majority were Taxis ?)

Some references also refer to it as an "Export
Model" ?

The car was manufactured in right hand drive form and exported to South Africa and was rebuilt (owner's desription) in 1970 including an engine rebuild in 1978 and a repaint and rechrome in 1980 and in 1981 it was brought to the UK

The car engine runs but the body work has a lot of surface rust due to living under a tarpaulin for some time also the brakes are not working at all

No photos at this stage but if I get any feedback and I purchase her then they'll be posted

Any feedback welcomed
