Who wanted a cheap 36 or 37 coupe? I'm wondering if it's a 37 115. I'll let someone with more Packard seniority make that decision.

This Caribbean has been for sale for quiet some time, and it won't sell. I don't know much about these postwar cars but why is this one not selling? I can see that the top is not very tight and the upholstery a little sloppy but is that a reason to dog this car $30k or am I missing the big white elephant in the room?

It seems to be a decent enough Caribbean, but the lack of the correct carburetion and air filter may be one reason it's not found a buyer, cost aside those components are increasingly hard to locate. And in my view that cheap "one size fits all" universal radiator hose can be indicative of an owner who isn't willing to spend $20?to get the correct hose and has perhaps treated the car's other needs similarly - to me that's always a caution flag.

BDC, OD,
Wondered about this 55 Caribbean as well. It also looks like there is a new gas tank, but the fuel line to the carburetor fuel filter looks like it's rubber run from the passenger side of the car. Is the steering column different color behind the steering wheel? I don't see the hood prop rod either. That listing of the car in Miami had more pictures than the Dallas Craigslist, dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/d/1955-cadillac-packard/6395992873.html And the Chicago Craigslist, chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/d/1955-cadillac-packard/6395958134.html

I can see both sides of the coin... on one hand, the price seems about fair based on Hagerty's latest valuation of a #4 Fair car at $43,200, and the $40,000 asking price is just a starting point anyway. But as has been pointed out, it's lacking one of the defining, critical components of the series, the dual-quad setup. But on the other hand, the single four-barrel is a lot easier to live with. If you can find a 1955 (because 1956's were different) complete-with-batwing dual-quad set up for sale, I'm guessing they would be in the $2,000 to $3,000 range?
One thing for certain with this particular car -- you'd have to love pink! And another certainty -- it should make the next owner very happy indeed!
