actually those seats are to nice for the car , suppose have that cheap cloth in it
most packards have no resale value anyways , so i guess it doesnt really matter, wish i knew who did the upholstery ,i need a clipper constellation done

u are correct, it takes a stainless strip
i believe Merritt has those strips ,i wouldnt put the top on without the stainless strip,looks cheap without it, u can dye the inside, me and a guy did one comes out nice ,the company made the dye ,mixed it the color wanted , and like i stated good place buy the top is from aro2000.com they show one on there site in vinyl looks good i have installed many conv tops in my day believe me

i believe u will find all 55 56 packards have the same windshield except the convertible , get a used one,should be easy find ,its the shipping thats a problem, u will need a new windshield rubber, hardest part is getting the chrome strips installed

check with Max Merritt ,i know what u are talking about, they are different,there shorter,the rest of moldings is the same
even the windshield is shorter like a half inch,i did a Caribbean and it was poor workmanship from the factory,the windshield opening was wide enough i think i could of put a hardtop windshield in it
