Packard Forum Index » Post-War (1946-54)

Hey there,

Some will remember that off and on throughout the last two decades I have helped my dad with his Packard 22nd

Nine years ago when he was 80 I installed power steering so that he could continue to drive his car and he was super happy with with the mod.

All along the way when I had questions...I asked the man who owns one...right here on this forum...and you guys have been a huge help!!! Very grateful for your experience and support.

Just last week my dad celebrated his 89th birthday and he said that he was not going to be driving his beloved Packard any longer so he gave it to me...

Kinda bitter sweet...as he said "it is the end of an era"

At least the car will continue to stay in the family and when I have questions I will continue to ask the man who owns one...and I guess people will now be looking at me when they ask...cauz I now own one!!!

Congratulations! I'm sure your father is pleased to have his beloved Packard in such good hands. We're all stewards who have the opportunity to preserve these Packards while enjoying them. Please take us along too on your journey with it.

Because he knows that you'll enjoy it, too.
