Chris, I think you've upset the Craig's List poster as the entry has been deleted!

Don, the CL poster needs thicker skin. It's like that magazine that I bought from you that had the article basically blaming the pre-war Sixes for Packard's demise. It's an OPINION and this is a site where opinions are exchanged. There have been drop-dead, gorgeous cars designed and manufactured over the years, that have stood the test of time, and others that STAND OUT as lesser-thans in form and lines. That's a fact. And while the public's reception and perception of those cars is somewhat subjective, history is the final arbiter, and a car that is not of classic lines, etc., will show in how collectible it ends up being. I thought that picture that Steve posted kind of said it all! Chris.

In my line of work I'm exempt and not bound to home and are able to get out on the road. So today I found (and wasnt looking I just happen to drive by) a 49 deluxe club sedan. The guy was asking $6k but told me (from a safe distance) that he would take $3k. Engine is free, oil looks brand new and ran when parked (license plate is from 1955...)

They didn't make a 36 120 long wheelbase I think, but it has a 1936 120 dash. I never heard of a factory station sedan, I suspect a aftermarket/ coach built funeral car or something like that.

The "1937 station sedan" is a 1936 120-B Commercial chassis on the 158 in wheelbase. The body is a Henney Nu-3-Way, its 1936 dash, shorter windshield and hood vent trim identifiers. This was before Packard and Henney entered into their joint agreement making Henney their exclusive professional car coachbuilder. Looks to be a major project.
