I think I've seen that 36 Packard JunkRod for sale before. There are a dozen or so of these pieces of crap floating around with no buyers. The thing is ugly and has no suspension. And of course they put the word "Packard" on the valve covers. That's very childish.
I think the place for that junker is to ship it to Michigan where it will be destroyed on the broken down and unsafe roads. The other day a cyclist was killed when he hit a pothole. Hopefully that piece of crap will fall through a hole in the River Rouge bridge.

That 37 Su8 needs to come down in price. Something evil happened to the dashboard and the leather is wrong.
It looks like a solid car that probably needed the paint job, but the work was obviously done by an idiot. So a lot of money will need to be sunk into that thing to fix it. As well the crankcase breather is a problem. If it doesn't work right that is bad for the motor.

Tim, what evil happened to the dash? I'm looking at it but can figure it out. I noticed some dials are almost white compared to others being yellow but that's all I can figure out.
Also a 41 Henney turned into a convertible https://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/5288790871.html

To me it looks like they cut out the smoked oxide panels and put something behind the fascia panel as if to replicate what a plating shop ground off. Only they should be dark colored not white.

The 23rd series car appears to be an Eight DeLuxe or Super Eight. The 22nd series car has Custom Eight side trim but a lower model grille, so?
