Nice article.
This one from MN sold recently on Ebay for almost 8K, I had excitedly looked at it about 3 years ago. The owner is in for a long road. i.ebayimg.com/images/g/QP4AAOSw9NdXrkza/s-l1600.jpg

Here is today's blog post:
<https://56packardman.com/2016/09/20/gear-head-tuesday-ol-petrol-head-reports-on-goodwood-revival/> We have photos of the Goodwood Revival in the U.K, but for Packard enthusiasts, there is a photo of a spectacular '56 Executive coupe painted in Naples Orange/Corsican Black and fitted with the Bendix Mechanical Fuel Injection Packard would have used on the '57s. I will do a longer story on this car next Tuesday. There is also a fun story about how "PacDoc1956" came to bring his grandmother's '56 Executive "back into the family." I want to post other stories of reader's cars. Please PM me and we will work out the details.

Nice story, really enjoyable read!
Wish I could track down my 1955 Packard 400. Last I knew of it was in the Philadelphia area. If some one spots a white-black-white 55 400 for sale in the Philly area...

Happened across this stunner, it never popped up in any of my normal searches.
memorylaneclassiccars.com/forsale/1956-packard-executive/ It is priced like a #1 car, it came from a large collection & the Paint, Chrome & Stainless are supposed to be outstanding. If it were priced like a #2, it would be headed to SE WI.

WOW! That is one beautiful Executive!
The Caribbean twin antennae add a nice touch to these Executive hardtops.
