35 super 8 limo with Wurlitzer organ attached

Fleckenstein Brewery - 1935 Super 8 Packard Limousine - seven passenger. Does anyone have pictures of this 1935 Packard? It had a Wurlitzer pipe organ installed under the hood and with the pipes stacked out of the left fender ( as seen in photo ) and a pull out keyboard that was on the passenger side, under the glove box. This is the ONLY picture of the Packard that we can find, in the news article. If some of you older folks from Faribault remember this car from parades or at the Fleckenstein Brewery, and have a photo of it, please contact me. I would like as much information about this car if anyone knows even where it may be. If you have somebody on your FB site that might have some information about this Packard, please share it. Does anyone know about this Packard? Faribault Mnthomptax@centurylink.net

Hi thomptax, welcome to PackardInfo.com!

A heavy organ installed on a Packard sounds like a crazy combination. Please find below a chain-driven Packard truck, that delivers Wurlitzer pianos (and search for the dog at the picture).

Gerd,

The dog appearing to be sitting on the bonnet(hood), but actually in the store window, is Nipper!

for that JD. Jim(thomptax) sent me the same photo and article, but you've beaten me to posting it! Certainly a different and interesting Packard.

It was a Super Eight and was quite well known in the CCCA Upper Midwest Region. It was owned by Florian Stucinski, who died in 1996. I don't think Florian owned the car at the time he died, and I don't know what happened to it.

I posted on my FaceBook page, and shared it with the PAC page and AACA page.

West,
for spreading the word.

Hopefully, since the car was in CCCA circles, someone knows what's become of it in the last 20 years.

I vaguely remember the car. It probably was sold well before he died... maybe 10 or 20 years before he died.
