Packard Forum Index » V-8 (1955-56)

I bought a 55 Constellation a year ago with plans to restore it. It needs a lot. I now feel, I am getting to old to tackle the project. I will give the car away to anyone willing to restore it. The only thing I ask is that Who ever takes it, returns the air conditioner pully and the bolt that holds it in place returns it to me. If any interest, please let me know and I will give my e-mail and phone number. The car is on the side of my house in Oakley, Ca. About 40 miles east of San Francisco.

Sorry to hear about your project. Hopefully it will go to someone who can do it.

Can you post a picture of it, or is it already on this site somewhere?

You must have another V8, to save the AC pulley for?

Yes, I have two other 55s. A Caribbean I've had for 20 years and a Panama I've had for 40 years. The Panama is my favorite. No bells or whistles on it. Would like to put air on it and power steering.

PM sent!

always too late...., seconds?

Quote:OK, tried to restrain myself but it got to much for this human unit! Any chance of including all three '55's in the Packard Owner's Registry? There! I've said it, imagine that!

The Caribbean and Panama are already on the registry. I will try to poat pictures of them soon.

My apologies 55clipper. I did look in the Registry. But on looking again, this time at your location of Oakley, CA, found the '55 Caribbean Convertible Coupe and the '55 Clipper Super Panama Hardtop Coupe under the User name of clipper374. Trap for young, and not so young, players!

EDIT - To add pic's to the above two Registry entries you will have to log in as clipper374.

As soon as it gets to its new Pennyslvania home, I will be sure to add it to the registry!

Thanks again Sir!
