Here's a nice 51 200 2door. Asking less than $5k! You can't even get a decent paint job for that kinda money, let alone a nice car ready to take to local shows.

Nice catch JD but this is still a nice consideration. BDC is correct that this car is a great bargain. It's rare, but other then being a model that Packard enthusiasts would appreciate it's not considered in demand.
I like it because I am familiar with the Buick and Pontiac versions of this "business coupe" model. So many Packard and other cars are way beyond my budget but this one isn't. Is it me or do the colors further sell this car? The conservative colors are nice on this car.

I restore the car, and the car restores me.

Is the Clipper above at least an 8 cylinder car? http://easttexas.craigslist.org/cto/5110356167.html

Bryan:
I believe the "Clipper" door script paired with the absence of wrap-around grille "whiskers" makes this a 2192/Clipper Eight. Also, I've been watching that business coupe sit on the Akron CL for at least two months if not longer. A great color combo for that body and it looks very presentable...too bad it's not found a new owner yet. --Scott G.

Interesting question about the Clipper being a six or an eight. I tend to agree with Scott.
Here is my take on the 21st Series Clippers: Six - No whiskers and no "Clipper" on sides. Eight - No whiskers and "Clipper" on sides. Deluxe Eight - Whiskers and "Deluxe Clipper" or "Clipper Deluxe" on sides (depending on which side being read). Super Eight - Whiskers and "Super Clipper" or "Clipper Super" on sides (depending on which side being read). Custom Super - Whiskers and no "Clipper" on sides. What do you all think? (o{}o)

Or you can spend more $ on a 36 v12 club sedan that needs everything!

Certainly looks like a nice car. I wonder if it smokes because of issues or if there was some sort of upper cylinder lube added to the fuel and the smoke will eventually go away.
