There is a rather complete 1955 Packard Four Hundred two-door coupe listed for sale on eBay. The car is located in the Pittsburgh area and the listing price is $4,999.00 or best offer. The seller states that the engine is not seized but does not say that it runs . . . hmmmm.
1955 PACKARD 400-HARD TOP-COUPE The listing has a good number of photos and those of the engine compartment look pretty complete to me, other than the missing battery. Not many of the interior, though. Just tossing it out there for anyone interested in a 1955 two-door.

It's certainly not the worst one that has found a willing buyer -- will be interesting to see if someone bites at that price.

I see by the round openings on the interior panels that the car has manual windows (and probably seat as well). $5000 is a lot to ask for a non running, manual window/seat car. Although it is a nice combination of white/black outside and red/white inside.

I love those dark colored combinations. Wonder if that is the grey pearl or onyx paint. I wonder what the bride would say if ..... oooops....I better not go there for personal safety reasons.

Has Randy Berger seen this one? This is in his neck of the woods, perhaps he could use another '55. He wouldn't have to worry about getting the power windows to work!

It looks like it was driven until fairly recently, otherwise why the tires, fluid in the washer, etc. It's worn, that's for sure, and that suface corrosion looks like it was parked on the ground for quite a while ad exposed to moisture, but if it was near me I'd go look at it. Anything that's close to driveable is what I'm looking for.
This is a near twin to the 400 we had when I first started driving. Not having power windows or seats was never a problem, because it WENT LIKE HELL! Interior was nicer tho' and it was also black and white, with gray patterned cloth upholstery and black patent leather trim. Very cool. Even after the power steering went out (only in one direction!) I drove it, although I had to slow down some. It went to Detroit Lakes MN, a distance of hundreds of miles, with a lot of NOS parts, and the guy that bought it DROVE it away, even tho he'd brought a trailer. He really loved how that the power antenna worked. Old cars are for fun IMO.
