The Packard was owned by Russell Kerr, long time member of the Packard Club who up until recently regularly attended Club meets here in Victoria. Russell decided to sell this car and a '56 Patrician recently because of his advancing years (he's in his '80's). We hope he and his wife Val still continue to attend meets, even if it means driving brand X. John Payne

Hi
I'm a Studebaker enthusiast too, and that '58 Studebaker look unusual to me. It appears to be the 120.5 wb Y-Body sedan of the U.S. model President but it has the side trim of a Champion or Commander. What model name is on it? Do you know if it has a 289 ci or 259 ci V-8 engine? It is an Export model with RHD, I wouldn't be surprised if there are differences in the chassis specs. Thanks! Steve PS: Never mind on the side trim, I now see the President trim, almost all are two-toned to emphasize it.
