Looks to be a 38 or 39 dashboard and a few boxes of goodies here:

I like that '57 Clipper wagon. They have to be pretty hard to come by and it otherwise looks OK. At least that owner gave a damn about this car.

Now on to the '56 Caribbean. It is odd to me that the interior of a convertible obviously stored for years in the open would be in the best condition of the car in general. The body looks fairly straight, though it is hard to tell how much damage rust has done to this poor car.

This is the first top-of-the-line Packard built in the company's last year of true Packard production. That makes this a pretty special car. It is truly sad to see the neglect this car has endured. Hopefully whoever buys it will give it the care and attention that it so rightfully deserves.

I maybe miss-remembering, but I think that 5699-1001 was at the 1999 PAC meet in Warren.

Does anyone else remember the car being there too?

Looks like Fred Kanter should buy the 54 in Texas - probably cheaper than building a limo out of parts!

The 56 Caribbean looks like a flood car. It was probably underwater and in decent condition prior to that. The seat cushions were likely brought inside to dry out.

Tim:

Your theory on the Caribbean's seats makes sense to me.

I am also thinking that we shouldn't be so hard on the seller ... he probably got this car in this condition and is only trying to move it on to someone who will take care of it.

I really like that '36 120B sedan. It looks very good in that silver/red combo. The price isn't bad either.

A 36 V12 engine for our European friends:
