Hi
Two rarer selections: A '54 eight passenger sedan, Cadillac powertrain, return it to all Packard and have a real rarity: mohave.craigslist.org/cto/4914754073.html A couple '55 Patrician project/parts cars but one has Factory AIR! The Novi trunk unit and rear window tubes are shown, good pair to get for solid parts, the A/C a real bonus: mohave.craigslist.org/cto/4927391337.html Steve

This "1107" has been for sale for a while. I know it's not real and the more I look at it the more I find stuff that makes no sense. I'm not even sure where they got 1107 from, the only thing it has in common with it is the wheelbase (maybe). I won't even comment on the interior....
1107 would of been a V12 of course not a straight 8, it's more like a 1104. The grille is too narrow, the fenders are crested (which the senior line didn't have till 38),and they're not coming down all the way (they're acting like a 33). The louvers on the side of the hood look terrible and are not packard, the rear lights; really? You put some hotrod lights on but you go through the trouble of putting a packard engine in a fiberglass car? Men, where do I stop on this car? So here's the big question: what's it worth? hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/packard/1107/1656484.html

Hi BDC
When it's a recreation by Bayliff which are well known for their "interpretations" of Classic Packards, the only thing remotely genuine Packard is the name they stick on it. But, these aren't really designed for folks who know and love real Packards. They're targeted toward the folks who want to drive a "classic-styled, gangster-era car" without all the inconvenience or fuss that old cars can generally be. It's all about 'look-at-me' narcissism, the vehicle is just the vehicle to make that happen (no pun intended). What is it worth? Whatever some fellow with too much money and no taste is willing to pay for it. After all, its simply a new chassis clothed in fiberglass shaped to look like a pre-war era car.....like reproduction costume jewelry. The saddest thing about these is real money is wasted on them while real Packards languish and are lost to neglect and indifference. Steve

In other words it's just a waste of a perfectly good packard engine and transmission?

Hi BDC
Well, I suppose that way they can claim it's a Packard...but in general its a waste....put the Packard engine and transmission back into a Packard where it belongs. Certainly there is a SBC or some other generic powertrain that would do just fine.....stick Packard decals on it...the people who would be fooled wouldn't know any better anyway. Steve
