The '38 may be a few weeks away from headlining at Pebble Beach ...

What the seller calls a 1940 Packard seems to me to be an incidental designation. With the possible exception of the radiator frame on the front, practically everything else visible was cobbled together from other brands.

It looks like it was somebody's project that literally ran out of gas! The engine is an older Chevrolet, but the tires and wheels look fairly new. Perusing this forum you see examples of Packards turned into hot rods, customized Packards, woebegone barn finds, and gorgeous trailer queens.

This 1940(?) is a real head-scratcher.

You can make a lot of really neat things from the parts left over after you rebuild your engine ...

Now this is an interesting 1938. We've discussed this car a time or 2 but the price is coming down into interesting territory. Thats a big change from the $80k they were asking last year.

BDC:

This car fascinates me. It is interesting that the original owner swapped the original straight-8 for a V-8. I suppose that swapping the older V-8 for a Chevy 454 has a certain logic to it ...

If you were starting a business as a chauffeur service for weddings, I think this particular car just might fit the bill to a "T." With the modern engine and running gear, along with modern available disk brakes, you could drive this car anywhere at normal traffic speeds. Also, since it has an alternator, adding an air-conditioner would be easy.

Like it or not, this is a fine looking car. It may not be original -- thank in part to the original owner! -- but it is undoubtedly more elegant and classier than a stretch Hummer 2 or Ford Excursion!
