52 convertible for less than $30k that seems to be in very good shape (in my untrained eyes).

Hi BDC

That '52 250 convertible in Duluth looks like a tremendous bargain to me! If its as good in the metal as it looks in photos, it'll sell quickly. Stick with overdrive!

Wouldn't it be nice if we knew what some of those over priced cars actually sold for or if they sell at all? CL is free and so you see all kinds of cars.

The seller of the yellow and white 56 400 did call me. The car has been in storage in the SW for 30 years, shows around 67,000 miles according to the seller and is an A/C car.

Seemed pretty firm on $5000. Nice PAC owned 400's can be had for $15,000 to $25,000, making a $5000 starting price tough to swallow but it is fair, compared to what project 56 Cadillac Coupe deVilles are bringing in similar condition and at much higher production.

With stock markets crashing in China if another collapse is beginning those prices might crash as well.

Years ago I went to a big numismatics show in New York City (only out of curiosity). There they had a well known rare coin with an MS65 (Super Mint State) grading certificate and a $13,000 price tag (or was it $31,000?). I inquired about the thing and forgot about it mainly because the people there were really creepy. I told them I would take it off their hands if they sold it in another state and avoid New York City sales taxes. I gave them my number, but they never called me. It hasn't gone up in value one lick.

I should be getting dad's 56 400 back Thursday. I had a mechanical refresh done on it to make it drivable. According to my mechanic he thinks i'll be in for a surprise. He says that 374 engine is unbelievable in power, it's like driving a muscle car. He's been driving it for a month and fixing little things that keep popping up on it. He's put $150 worth of gas through it, says it'll pass anything but the gas station.

He and I both drove my 55 400 and the 55 Constallation, which were nice but I wouldn't jump up and down on their performance. They were like driving big soft pillows down the road.

It'll be interesting seeing what the 56 is like.

Right Down the road, she is a looker

What's with the bar on the front bumper?

Wow. Here is how I see this car. The 200 was not the top of the line car for 1951 but it's 8 cylinder Packard powered, everything I see looks like you get a big dose of early 50's American car experience, for $5500 to $6500.

Now, compare that to a 1951 Chevy, or Plymouth, Pontiac - you get the picture. It's a great deal.

Trust me, NO 1951 Packard 200 4 doors are getting restored in this age of $6000 chrome, $7000 engine rebuilds and $10,000 interiors, etc. So if a person wants to get into the old car hobby Packard style without dropping $35,000, here you go.
