Nice 1938 super 8, but priced a little high for a sedan:

...any idea what that is on the trunk area? accessory brake light? aftermarket turn signal?
Yes, aftermarket.

That '54 Clipper Deluxe Sedan for $1850 would be a great car for someone looking to get into a Packard. The interior and exterior would surely clean up without much effort or cost.
A deal at that price unless the floors and rockers have hidden rust.

I can't believe nobody has jumped on this mayfair for this price:
http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/5448796621.html There was someone that wanted to build a racing packard, but I can't remember who it was. Here's a prewar racer ready to go: http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/5454357229.html

Ronald McDonald car. Love your caption Among other things the sellers claims: - New/partial paint on exterior - All bolt-on body parts have been repainted. - Needs interior completed and have all parts. On another thread someone asked about two-tone paint on a 1937 junior car and BigKev posted a Packard letter NOT RECOMMENDING two-tone paint schemes. That letter was done for a reason; because PMCC had the forethought that someone would do this to one of their cars. BTW, this seller is DREAMING!!! The car, when complete with a period-correct paint scheme and all new interior will be worth (IMHO) somewhat less than the $75.000 he is asking for it now in its current condition. OK, to determine its current (as-is) value you need to DEDUCT from the asking price: ? Your estimate of a complete paint job in period correct colors ? Your estimate of a complete new interior ? Cost freshen engine & engine bay - photo is dated 12 years ago, 2004 ? Another 10% to 20% off for something I refer to as a "Stupidity Surcharge." Because anyone that has "repainted all bolt-on body parts" red has certainly done something equally bizarre with other parts of the car.

Hello BDC: Now that I re-look at the rear-end photo I realize that the car is on the trailer backward. The heavy motor is at the back of the trailer, not forward toward the hitch. So I'm increasing my SS deduction to more like 25%. That would bring me in line your estimate.

BTW I can't take credit for the "ronald Mcdonald" comparison. I posted this car a while back and someone else called it a McDonald's car.
