I'm with Mid, Bobby,Bkaz on the above nightmare, which has no more to do with Packard than a Yugo Deluxe or air conditioned golf cart for four or more overfed duffers with more money than brains or health. Every now and then, someone plasters a fakey do Packard grille on some GM amalgamation, hoping enough geezers in the Sun Belt will want to cut a dash around their retirement communities, to and fro the golf course and mall in such a monstrosity.
As with the popularity of hohum like 1941 Cadillacs in the CCCA these days, with their available go pedal/stop pedal HydraMatic, such garbage is aimed at the white belt/white shoe contingent.

Sic transit gloria mundi. Let Packard rest in peace, other than our well-tended survivors.

We shouldn't even give such sleazoids the seal of imprimatur by momentarily acknowledging, let alone discussing them, on our hallowed site.
