I was just reading an interesting article about the auction of more than 200 cars from the 1930s and '40s, including a 1917 Maxwell, in Oklahoma. Here is the link:
foxnews.com/leisure/2014/05/14/incredibl ... red-after-61-years/?intcmp=features This auction includes a 1937 and 1940 Packard (no other descriptions). Here is the link to VanDerBrink Auctions, which is handling the transactions: vanderbrinkauctions.com/auctions_details.php?detail=155&allimages=NO

You can make a lot of really neat things from the parts left over after you rebuild your engine ...

Judging by the photos in the article, most of these cars are probably scrap or are likely to cost a fortune to restore. And with the exception of the Cord and Lincoln, and maybe a couple of others, there were few listed worth the expense of frame-off restorations. This reminds me a bit of that auction a few months ago of all of those Chevrolets in Nebraska.

Vanderbrink auctions seems to specialize in barn find hoards/collections.
Fascinating auctions.

Scrap? So, no one should mind if any of these are used for hot rod projects, right? I know I wouldn't, except for the few cars showcased indoors.

The Cord looked to be restorable.
