I think the Super DeLuxe 8 (like that one) and the Customs came with the Ultramatic. I agree that the two tone scheme is incorrect for the year as well. The interior is way off!!! Not Packard like...

I distinctly remember the plumbing fixture with the red handle underneath the heater controls. I can't find the thread. And yes, the Neal book is a great resource for any admirer of the 22nd/23rd series. I highly recommend it. For $13,000+ I'd expect the correct engine. Posted on: 2014/3/29 10:39
