Does look pretty good, at least from what can be seen from the lousy pictures.

Oh, that 1955 Clipper Constellation.......be still my heart!!!
I love that color combo. My Mom drove a red and white '55 Constellation in 1957 thru 1959. My Grandmother drove it in 1955 and 1956. The perks of being married to the owners of a Packard dealership.

Re: the 1952 Packard custom......it may be history, but history in hindsight does not always look good.

What Don says about draining/flushing the fuel system cannot be stressed enough!! Running bad fuel thru an engine that ran great 10 years ago can easily result in an engine with some stuck valves that will run poorly if at all. The gas tank may not be able to be cleaned without removing it; the metal gas line from the tank to the fuel pump should also be cleaned/flushed. Alternately you can make a small temporary fuel tank out of a metal gallon can or use a boat gas tank, and use rubber fuel line to connect it to the fuel pump inlet. And, if non-ethanol gas is available in your area, use it because the ethanol crap is detrimental to the old style hoses and fuel pump diaphragms in these older cars. It's a great looking car, so be careful with it! This forum has a huge amount of hard learned information in the heads of the members (not so much me, since I'm still looking for my first Packard) so don't hesitate to ask questions.

Interestingly, the 1947 Custom Super Clipper Sedan has been fitted with power steering (along with disc brakes).
Are there available p/s "kits" for Packards?
