Agreed, and you should buy it for that, and either have his/her cars, or sell your driver for a little bit more to someone who simply wants a car that is already sorted out (now that your knuckles have healed), and you may net a little bit of money to invest in the resurrection of a car with overdrive...

OK, and if you still must have a banjo wheel, I have one I would either sell or trade. One used 39-40 Banjo wheel, restoration candidate, i.e. good spokes and hub, horrible perimeter plastic, of course. $240.40 delivered, or half that if I get your H wheel, or make me an offer.

Yes, that is commonly referred to as the "H" wheel, vs. the "K"wheel (41-47 Banjo Accy.).
I have a 39-40 Junior standard wheel here if you prefer being correct, decent used, $100, but personally, I would keep the "H" wheel, if even to twist the brains of many Packard guys...not a common wheel. DAF

The "H" pattern wheel is 1939 and 1940 factory base wheel for the Senior cars. It is uncommonly seen on the 39-40 junior cars.

My point exactly, and if the 38 is indeed a running/driving car, then a reasonable market price in my observation. 20K for a non-driving 6cyl sedan is overly optimistic in my opinion. Not to swerve far off topic, but How's the picklemobile?

I agree with West and am adding my support as such because if you really want to sell it, be realistic, especially as the car has not been maintained in 40 years, meaning expensive overhauls of brake, cooling, fuel, electrical systems. One important accessory that will impact the marketability of the car is the overdrive. 15K is top end, serviced, in the right market. 8-10K as is.

Don is OK - i spoke with his wife yesterday.

I know these cars/owner well. This car is basically a 180 Formal Sedan with a removable post, modified front seat/wheelchair and ramps, and will need a total restoration.

...and the desire to own a 1938 120 (not 37...)
