Thank you all. I have used both the Hagerty and NADA guides and feel confident I know the real value of my car. She has not been modified but has had a new coat of paint at some point in her past. My greatest concern is for the trunk liner. It is original but in poor condition. It appears as if the oil change pan was left in the trunk on a trip to the garage. Lots of oil staining.
I am interested in a correct replacement of the trunk liner. Any ideas where to acquire this? Kevin, I already have plans for a company function on saturday, otherwise I would be tempted to drive up to Tucson. What do you think of running radial tires? I have a complete set of bias ply tires that acentuate ever ongilation in the road. It can be a bit disconcerting. Am considering a spare set of wheels with DOT approved radials for running on the interstate. Any ideas? Otherwise I would not change a thing. Everything works, including the vacuum operated windshield wipers. Amazing! I could not be happier save a small incontinence of transmission fluid. That is to be expected, I suspect she needs a new gasket. The fluid looks good though. Ray

Last week I jumped headlong into the Packard pool and purchased a 56 Executive. I have a lot to learn but you can not pry the smile off my face when I am driving this beautiful ole gal around our community. Of course I want to know about her history and to restore the am radio to working order. Mostly, though, I would like to know what she is really worth so that my insurance company (USAA) and I can reach a more informed decision. In the mean time, I will buff and polish her nearly perfect chrome.
How can I learn more about her production, sale, and previous ownership? How do I appraise her value? I appreciate your core of understanding. Thanks, in advance.
