Would a 56 clipper have (engine to body) matching numbers. I thought this idea was applicable only to mid 70's muscle cars.

C-DUDE

I think you left one out that should not have been left out. The intended merger with AMC that never came about. If that had taken place the Packard/stude merger might not have been as big a deal.

JMHO

Have tried them all. The job market is sluggish and for every job there is 300-500 resumes sent. Also they can figure out my age from my resume and I have used every trick in the book to hide it, but contrary to public opinion age discrimination is widely practiced in corporate America and almost impossible to prove.

I do not understand it either. I really need to sell it otherwise I would not be posting this. Out of work 2 years, have exhausted my retirement funds, the wifes 401 K will begone by the end of the year. Even if I sell this car it will only prolong things for about 4 months. My only hope, a job or the lottery..

Hey Guys

I am caught in a dilemma. A guy in N.J.called me on behalf of a client. The guy has his own shop. His client once had a Packard Clipper but it was customized, bucket seats, 350 Chebbie, etc. Even if he come close to my price I am hesitant to sell it to him
because once it's sold, God only knows how my car is going to be bastardized. The only possible saving grace would be if I kept the 2 X 4 manifold and one carb. Still I hate the thought of a Chebbie being stuffed into my Packard
OPINIONS PLEASE....................

TWO DEALS, BOTH WENT DOWN THE TUBES

On buyer #1 who wanted to give me an international scout and cash
my wife nixed that deal because she did not want to have the burden of trying to sell another car and one which we knew nothing about(can't say as I blame her).

On buyer #2, we had closed on a deal with a deposit and final closure in March, but a week after we agreed he called me and called it off because he was unsure(due to legalities on his end)
that he could make good on it. So the car is back out on EBAY Got lots of people viewing and a few watching, but no questions after a day, so we shall just have to wait and see.

It's amazing. Everybody and his uncle poo-poo's the car but there is not one of us who would not have it in his/her garage if they could.

Does anyone know off the top of their head the widest width of a 56 Clipper Custom and a 56 Patrician?

Owen My wifes car just left the driveway headed for Indiana. How do I alter the registry to denote that the car has a new owner.

I may be dense and at 7AM without a sufficient amount of coffee,
but why is the time period not correct? The funeral was 1959 and the car was a 1956, it would have only been 3 years old at the time.
