Uh huh. No flippin' way it's worth anything near the "offer price".

We went over this about 2 years ago. We came to the conclusion that it was a mongrol. Yes you're right it's worth maybe 10-20% of the asking price.

Hi

The '54 Clipper offered by Richard France here, looks like quite a deal for the price:

Looks like a great deal to me if you have room for four cars.

The four clipper deal is local to me if anyone would like me to check them out.

1936 120 sports coupe. Check out the glove compartment door, I've never seen one like that. I think that its custom-made or maybe an addition to the sports coupe compared to the business coupe?

Don't know what to make of the glove compartment door, except it appears to have been modified with what looks like a second ash tray and some other instrument plus a clock. Really like the art deco styling of the instrument panel. Also, note the hose routing from the back of the head to the water pump clamped on the radiator brace rod. Car does not look like it has a heater.

It looks like the glove box door has been modified with a cigar lighter socket, an auxiliary ashtray, and a clock from left to right. These additions are very neatly done but they must have reduced the storage area in the box considerably.

The car most certainly has a heater. The heater core tubes are visible protruding from the firewall. One of the tubes is near the bend of the red heater bypass hose; the other is visible just on the sunny side of the sun/shadow line. Undoubtedly the core sprung a leak so the decision was made to bypass the heater core rather than fix it. The heaters Packard used were actually Delco units with round heater cores, so they are found on GM vehicles and probably some other makes as well.
