Yeah!! I am now the owner of a second Packard! Given, (yes, thats correct) to me by a forum member with the understanding, that I will do what I can to get her roadworthy again. I just had delivered a remarkably complete 1955 Clipper Constellation with factory air! This is not the best picture, as a lot of the trim is inside the car or the trunk, but from what I can see, almost all there. I don't really have a timeline as I am going overseas again for 6 months very soon, and the wife says that the '28 526 has to be DONE before I can undertake a restoration of the '55. Running, and driving YES, restore, no, so that may be a while yet!

So, enjoy my new Clipper meeting for the first time her much older brother.

just do what I did: read all the '23 literature, make several '23 cars your desktop backround, convince the wife that, one day, one day...,

check all the prewar forums everyday, and after a year or so, one should pop up for free, Hey, worked for me!

Laughing at the "Wife" story. I think I have my wifey convinced that we need another Packard. Looking at a 47 Super Clipper or Pre-depression car.

Hard, (but not impossible!) for the wife to say no to two free Packards from different sources. First is a family car. Second, just a kind heart that knew that he didn't want to complete a third restoration.
