In browsing through the website, I flipped over to PACKARD PICTURES and scrolled down to picture number 49 under 1953
model year photos, and lo and behold, there sits the identical vehicle to the one that was close to my heart (and my wallet) for 10 and a half years. Are there any forum members that could say whose car it is or perhaps the VIN number? Thanks for your help, SVENSK

I sure appreciate all the effort that you folks have expended, and am confident that we will keep looking
until something shows up. I am just sure that it is still
in existance somewhere-----------Thanks, SVENSK

In reply to (55 Packard Conv.) I purchased the car in 1957 in Jamestown, New York from Cusimano Bros. Packard Agency.
It was previously owned by Earl Zahn , A local Pennzoil distributor, who purchased the car new in Lakeland, Florida
in 1954, as a carry-over model. The car was Gulf Green Metallic, with roll-up manual windows and manual seat adjuster, power antenna and Ultramatic Trans. I sold the car in 1967 to a man in Frewsburg, New York; he had it in storage for many years and sold it to a man in Gowanda, NY
who had it "restored" by a shop in Springville, NY at which time I lost track of it, though it was rumored that it was sold at a classic and antique auto auction in Niagara Falls NY--end of story until I find out more.

Thanks Guys, I really appreciate your assistance, as I will continue searching in whatever forum would likely produce an answer. Your Packard Lovin' Friend, SVENSK

I don't currently own a Packard, but there were a lot of them in my past. The first was a '37 six cyl. 4 dr., and that got traded up to a '49 22nd series sedan, which got traded up to a '52 2501 sedan, which got wrecked and totaled
followed up by a '53 Caribbean which I owned from 1957 until
1967, and only sold because it needed more work done than I could afford at that time. That car's VIN is 2678-2540, and I would be delighted to find where the car ended up, and certainly hope it never went to a junk yard. Hoping that someone in the membership here would be able help dig up any info.....Sincerely, Svensk
