Hi Lionel

The reason I didn't include the '37 115 Six is they weren't all-steel bodies like the '38 and later models. While they '35-'37 120's and 115 are mostly steel, they have some wood structure, something the extreme rough roads could cause problems with.

As far as the '20-'28 Six, I'll leave that to those with direct knowledge of them. They too are tough cars but like any have their drawbacks.

One spare might be carried on the back in addition to one inside in the normal position.

At the risk of sounding presumptuous, might I suggest a look at a hydrogen injection system that is very promising for all vehicles? www.h2hypod.com

As I understand the H2HYPOD is producing detonating-/batterygas, and I don't think you can gain any energy - quite opposite.

I understand the H2Pod company is also reintroducing Horwitron, the electric cure for baldness, and cold fusion using your refrigerator.

I just purchased a 1937 Packard and it will be on its way to Dallas, Texas soon. Making transportation arrangements. Anyone have a recomendation for a good transporter? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. The next step is locating the side mount hardware and Flackmaster is helping me with that.

Lionel,

Congratulations on your Packard purchase, the first step in many more to come. And now a request and a suggestion.

The request? Could you please include your '37 Packard in the Packard Owner's Registry here on PackardInfo?

The suggestion? That you start a Project Blog in the Project Blogs Forum here on PackardInfo. I'm sure there'll be many of us ready to follow your journey from go to whoa! A Project Blog will also provide a step by step record as you prepare and ready your Packard for the journey ahead.

And maybe a follow up piece on the actual Peking to Paris adventure?

I have had good experience with InterCity. Cost runs about a buck a mile. Covered transport. Scheduling, like other carriers, may take some time.
